“There are very, very few people who occupy the ground that Leonard Cohen walks on.” -BONO
The Flame is the final work from Leonard Cohen, the revered poet and musician whose fans span generations and whose work is celebrated throughout the world. Featuring poems, excerpts from his private notebooks, lyrics, and hand-drawn self-portraits, The Flame offers an unprecedentedly intimate look inside the life and mind of a singular artist.
A reckoning with a life lived deeply and passionately, with wit and panache, The Flame is a valedictory work.
“This volume contains my father’s final efforts as a poet,” writes Cohen’s son, Adam Cohen, in his foreword. “It was what he was staying alive to do, his sole breathing purpose at the end.”
Leonard Cohen died in late 2016. But “each page of paper that he blackened,” in the words of his son, “was lasting evidence of a burning soul.”

Indeed that speech is one of the great speeches and only Cohen could have made it. I miss his presence, his grace and his incomparable creative beauty.

I miss Leonard so much 💔
me too
Although my grief will never cease, his voice, like a balm, gives my soul a fleeting ease. ❤️🌹
Yes, Leonard is greatly missed by many, we have his recorded work and his writing to console us, but his departure is the big leaving we all must take. so we share this with him.
Wow.. This is rare and so beautiful... Leonard Cohen will always be The master, The Gentleman, my compagnion during my life and I will miss him forever... The poems from Lorca are fabulous....
About the voice of Mr. Cohen, I think that his voice changed with the years, changed with the songs, changed with us, I LOVE all his "voices", they all come from his soul...
THanks for your beautiful poems, literature and songs, Mr. Cohen..
Blessed Be;

Chapeau , once and forever!!! RIP!! Great lost for humanity!!
I miss you Leonard Cohen with your beautiful voice and ilove your songs THANKS you Leonard Cohen. Rip
Love you Leonard.you were a gift and a blessing to us. Lucky we still have your voice.
I miss him too. It’s when you hear items like this that you understand how much has been lost, in spite of his great legacy. O for the touch of a vanished hand and the sound of a voice that is still 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Magnificent, voice & words of the master, Mr Leonard Cohen 🇮🇪🇮🇪
so gentle & wise
The best speech ( Asturias 2011) i hear in my life. Thanks Leonard where you are. Thanks from Asturias, from Spain
That last sentence migh have been one of the most profund statements I have ever heard.
Miss you Leonard
love you Leonard.R.I.P.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Everything he says sounds so poetic. What a man.
Wonderful hearing his voice. Own a bilingual book of all of Lorca's poems then gave it to a son of friends. He was learning Spanish and traveling to Spain to study.
Everybody knows...Leonard Cohen is great. Is awesome to hear about his love to Lorca, one of the great voices of spanish literature.
What strikes me as well is his barefaced honesty and humility in finding his own voice and self through the beauty, truth and works of another. I love his sense of the need for outpourings of lament. And equally the duty that we owe in gratitude, thus acknowledging that our own talent is so often largely a collection of what has gone before rather than a natural talent for which we can take absolute credit.
Gracias por acudir a la entrega de tú premio por el Príncipe de Asturias en Oviedo, ahora el rey de España Felipe VI.
Descansa en paz Leonard. Recordamos con gran emoción en Asturias, el magnífico discurso que diste.
His voice enhances the beauty of every single word! Amazing!
An incredible man, an incredible poet. He will always be remembered
I miss Leonard 🖤
Rest In Peace.
To have read or listened to Cohen is to have lived. To have not is merely to have existed. RIP Maestro
This made me projectile cry.
Expecting my copy tomorrow!! So excited to read it! Miss you Mr. Cohen
Wow ! I study a lot of poets now. Leonard is one of them. I really like how he understand heaven, hell, here and there. Thank you !
An amazing man, with an amazing voice, speaking amazing words on a dank rainy Sunday morning in Belfast Ireland 🇮🇪
Ein wahres Genie 🐈
I miss you, my muse
Rest in peace
Everything Leonard says, it seems, is graced by beauty. But as a poet myself, I have to step back from his point of view, and I'm sure he would understand that. Finding one's voice is like finding where you stand - but wherever you stand, you stand alone. And it's frightening, going it alone, but that's the way it is for artists. It's worth noting that he never said that these were instructions for anyone else - he said that the voice that he found came with specific instructions on how to use it.
Well it's even harder to be authentic now because so many want to project false images on artists not take them as they are so much manipulation and deceit we are told is "truth".
Awesome. I absolutely adore Cohen's work, his music and his writings, even those that are in voice.
Admirable man
Magical Moment ~
I am buying it right now. Love his work, he was truly an unique artist.
How can anyone dislike this? (sigh)
lelabotoxique Anyone who dislikes this is a miserable, wretched creature.
Awsome musician selina 🎶🌹❤️
It can’t ever get better than this ❤️ thank you 🙏🏼
Gorgeous work, thank you !
I did not discover Leonard until he had already passed. Which is probably a good thing cuz I probably would have had to track him down. I was so moved by his lyrics, and he helped me so much through a difficult time.
Magnifique 👍🌹💞😚
Just WOW
