The letters were written by the Canadian literary legend to Marianne Ihlen, Cohen's girlfriend in the 1960s, and the inspiration for one of his best-known songs, 'So Long, Marianne,' MichaelSchaub reports.
,"My book was refused ... I feel free again, the way I felt before a line of mine was ever published ... I have no titles, no role. I'm alone with myself and the vast dictionaries of language."
Two years later, after his debut novel was published, Cohen wrote to Ihlen discussing the book's reception. Literary critics,, have"all screamed about the wild undisciplined dirty book, so it’s selling quite well ... But what made me happy were the reactions of Irving and Dudek and the other writers around: they got what I meant, and they know the book will be around for a long time.
