#16 The Untold Stories of Leonard Cohen with Michael Posner
Taking a (well-earned!) pause on politics and reform, in this episode of Beaconsfield podcast I speak with Michael Posner, author of a three-part oral history of Leonard Cohen: the songwriter and poet who has meant more to me in my life than perhaps any other. We discuss Leonard’s character from the perspective of those who knew him best, his relationships with those he loved and lost, his various hidden selves, and his original sense of God, defeat, brokenness, and reconciliation. At the heart of Leonard's work is a reach for the light through the cracks of humanity - I hope you find this conversation as meaningful as I did.
