A review by stupidpieceofhuman
The Energy of Slaves by Leonard Cohen

5.0

this is the second leonard cohen book i have read, and that too in this same year. after field commander cohen impressed me with his magnum opus "beautiful losers", he enthralled me with this book of poems. man, oh man! what poems they are! astounding, hurting, burned with desire, longing, and lovelessness. he again mesmerised me with no inhibition but with a power so shy that i felt comfortable snuggled in the poems. beautiful.
