jesowings 's review for:

The Holy or the Broken: Leonard Cohen, Jeff Buckley, and the Unlikely Ascent of "Hallelujah" by Alan Light

3.0

informative reflective slow-paced

This was an interesting dive into a song I'll never get tired of hearing (or singing). Filled with great anecdotes and details, but a bit belabored by the end. Also, the author is a music critic so the writing got a little pretentious at times, which was a bit tiresome. But still, a fun one to pick up, even as dated as it is.
