I am sure if he would be alive, he would not like that comparison. When it comes to poetry, Cohen beats Bob Dylan hands down. Philippe Girard brings grace to Montreal's modern-day poetic bard. Cohen's music is weaved in his personality. He is a fabric of the diversity that makes Montreal unique. Leonard Cohen has wandered throughout the world but Montreal was always his home. Philippe Girard captures the man and the myth through flashbacks of the best and worst in his storied life. Philippe's art is a blend of Quebec and European influences that come into his own.

Leonard Cohen: On a Wire is translated by Helge Dascher and Karen Houle.
