Lamentations of a Young Man - Poems and Songs - 1995-2000

Bleak and beautiful, immediate and visceral, Lamentations of a Young Man is the culmination of years of introspection presented in poetic form. Cohen’s background in the visual arts, with a focus in sculpture, has helped him imbue his poetry with a distinctive visual and tactile quality. The poems, though often quite short, are deeply emotional and very personal; each one carefully crafted to read like an explosion of thought onto the page.
