Leonard Cohen. Come un uccellino su fili di parole
(Like a little bird on strings of words)
Author: Elena Lamberti
Publication date – October 28, 2018
Publisher: Castel Negrino
ISBN-13: 978-8899341619
174 pages, in Italian

Google translation of the introduction:
The Torah and Talmud, Zen Buddhism and Hinduism Advaita Vedanta, Persian mystics, Primo Levi, Alexander Trocchi, Constantino Kavafis, Dylan Thomas are just some of texts, worlds and authors that underlie the artistic exploration of Leonard Cohen, while Federico Garcia Lorca and Irving Layton have given shape to the sacred wood of an author who has remained a lifelong Canadian "free exile" ". F.R. Smith, A.M. Klein, Louis Dudek are the masters of Montreal who bring young Cohen to become, with Margaret Atwood, Dennis Lee and many others, one of the most important voices of the Canadian Renaissance. A literary season that has brought out other voices, such as those of Alootook Ipellie and Louise Bernice Halfe, silenced by the colonial history of a nation stolen from indigenous peoples.
