Leonard Cohen was this week conferred the 2011 Prince of Asturias Award for Letters, reminding me that I left Beautiful Losers half read on my nightstand last summer (and that I should finish it), but putting his songs in my head.
"The passing of time, sentimental relationships, the mystical traditions of the East and the West and life sung as an unending ballad make up a body of work associated with certain moments of decisive change at the end of the 20th and beginning of the 21st century."
Listen to my favourite cover version of one of my favourite Leonard Cohen songs: Dance Me to the End of Love.

I knew I liked you. One of my favorites as well.
Go back and finish Beautiful Losers! I want to read your thoughts (on the book).
