So die Beschreibung des Buches in deutsch:<\/p>\n

Das au\u00dfergew\u00f6hnliche Leben einer der gr\u00f6\u00dften Musik- und Literaturikonen der Welt, so die Worte derer, die ihn am besten kannten.<\/p>\n

Dichter, Schriftsteller, Singer-Songwriter, K\u00fcnstler, Prophet, Ikone – es gab noch nie eine Figur wie Leonard Cohen. Er war ein wahrer Riese in der zeitgen\u00f6ssischen westlichen Kultur und unterhielt und inspirierte Menschen \u00fcberall mit seiner Arbeit. Von seinen bahnbrechenden und meistverkauften Romanen The Favourite Game und Beautiful Losers bis hin zu zeitlosen Songs wie \u201eSuzanne\u201c, \u201eDance Me to the End of Love\u201c und \u201eHallelujah\u201c ist Cohen ein gesch\u00e4tzter K\u00fcnstler. Sein Tod im Jahr 2016 wurde weltweit von den vielen Fans und Anh\u00e4ngern gef\u00fchlt, die seine W\u00e4rme, seinen Humor, seinen Intellekt und seine durchdringenden Einsichten vermissen w\u00fcrden.<\/p>\n

Leonard Cohen, Untold Stories, zeichnet die ganze Breite seines au\u00dfergew\u00f6hnlichen Lebens auf. Der erste von drei B\u00e4nden – The Early Years – begleitet ihn von seiner Kindheit in Montreal bis zur Universit\u00e4t und seiner aufkeimenden literarischen Karriere in der Welt der Musik, die 1970 mit seiner ersten internationalen Tournee gipfelte.<\/p>\n

Durch die Stimmen derer, die ihn am besten kannten – Familie und Freunde, Kollegen und Zeitgenossen, Rivalen, Gesch\u00e4ftspartner und seine vielen Liebhaber -, geht das Buch tief in Cohens \u00f6ffentliches und privates Leben ein. Es malt auch ein Portr\u00e4t einer \u00c4ra, der sozialen, kulturellen und politischen Revolutionen, die die 1960er Jahre ersch\u00fctterten.<\/p>\n

In diesem aufschlussreichen und unterhaltsamen ersten Band greift der Bestsellerautor und Biograf Michael Posner auf Hunderte von Interviews zur\u00fcck, um \u00fcber den Cohen des Mythos hinauszugehen und die einzigartige, komplexe und \u00fcberzeugende Figur des echten Mannes zu enth\u00fcllen.<\/p>\n
