Leonard Cohen: On a Wire
Opening in Los Angeles on the last night of Leonard Cohen’s life in 2016. Alone in his final hours, the beloved writer, poet, and musician ponders his existence in a series of flashbacks that reveal the ups and downs of his storied career . . .
Written with careful attention to detail and drawn with a palette of warm, lush colors by the Quebec-based cartoonist Philippe Girard, Leonard Cohen is an engaging portrait that captures the essence of a legendary musician, poet, and cultural icon.
"Girard offers a portrait of the artist as a young and not-so-young man, drawing on Cohen’s creative inspirations, frustrations and personal tragedies." -- The Forward
