These are not merely per sonal concerns for Cohen, they are dimensions of the world that he tries to understand as a poet, singer, and thinker. Now it's something of a cliche to see the modern romantic or post-romantic singer or poet in terms of personal strug gles, failures, triumphs, and reversals. Poets sometimes re spond by adopting elusive, ironic, enigmatic, or parodic voices: think, in their different ways, of Bob Dylan and Anne Carson. Yet Cohen has always worn his heart on his sleeve or some less clothed part of his body: he let us know, for ex ample, that Janis Joplin gave him head in the Chelsea hotel while their celebrity limos were waiting outside. -
