Finished the "Book of Longing"

I've just finished Leonard Cohen's "Book of Longing". I tried to drag it out as long as possible, and then I turned the page only to find the end. It's fantastic, I highly recommend it!

Another of my favourites:

REPORT TO R.S.B.

Peace did not come into my life.
My life escaped
and peace was there.
Often I bump into my life,
trying to catch its breath,
pay a bill,
or tolerate the news,
tripping as usual
over the cables
of someone'’s beauty.–
My little life:
so loyal,
so devoted to its obscure purposes.–
And, I hasten to report,
Doing fine without me.

LEONARD COHEN
BOOK OF LONGING
