**The *New York Times* -bestselling, definitive biography of lengendary artist Leonard Cohen**
Singer/songwriter Leonard Cohen is one of the most important and influential musical artists of the past fifty years—and one of the most elusive. In *I’m Your Man* , journalist Sylvie Simmons, one of the foremost chroniclers of the world of rock ’n’ roll and popular music, explores the extraordinary life and creative genius of Leonard Cohen.
*I’m Your Man* is an intimate and insightful appreciation of the man responsible for “Suzanne,” “Bird on a Wire,” “Hallelujah,” and so many other unforgettable, oft-covered ballads and songs. Based on Simmons’s unparalleled access to Cohen—and written with her hallmark blend of intelligence, integrity, and style— *I’m Your Man* is the definitive biography of a major musical artist widely considered in a league with the great Bob Dylan.
Readers of *Life* by Rolling Stone Keith Richards, and Patti Smith’s phenomenal *Just Kids* will be riveted by this fascinating portrait of a singular musical icon.
