The Flame

The Flame is the final offering from Leonard Cohen, the legendary poet and musician whose words and melodies have touched hearts across generations. This posthumous collection—featuring poems, song lyrics, personal journal entries, and even hand-drawn self-portraits—opens a rare window into the inner world of a deeply soulful artist.

More than just a book, The Flame is a farewell—a powerful reflection on a life lived with intensity, elegance, and raw honesty. It captures the essence of Cohen’s voice at the end of his journey, brimming with insight, humor, and grace.

“This volume contains my father’s final efforts as a poet,” writes his son, Adam Cohen, in the foreword. “It was what he was staying alive to do, his sole breathing purpose at the end.”

Though Leonard Cohen passed in late 2016, these pages remain lit with the quiet fire of a man who wrote until his final breath—evidence, as Adam puts it, “of a burning soul.”
