The Energy of Slaves: Poems

Leonard Cohen

4.05/5 (515 ratings)

Read Now Download Now

To mark the publication of Leonard Cohen's final book, The Flame, McClelland & Stewart is proud to reissue six beautiful editions of Cohen's cherished early works of poetry.

A freshly packaged series for devoted Leonard Cohen fans and those who wish to discover one of the world's most adored and celebrated writers.

Originally published by McClelland & Stewart in 1972, The Energy of Slaves is Cohen's fifth collection, and one of his most controversial. A dark and intense book, described by one critic as deliberately ugly, offensive, bitter, anti-romantic, Cohen considered it a document of his struggle--I've just written a book called The Energy of Slaves, he told an interviewer at the time, and in there I say that I'm in pain. Bracing, challenging, and equally beautiful and off-putting, it remains one of his most compelling and complex works.

Pages:: 128 pages
