What is Little People Big Dreams - Leonard Cohen about?

Leonard Cohen grew up in Montréal, where he found beauty in roses, birdsong and the stories he heard at synagogue. After his father died when Leonard was nine, he began writing poetry to express his feelings. His search for inspiration took him to London, Greece and New York, where he discovered songwriting. With his thoughtful poems, haunting melodies and unforgettable voice, Leonard became a celebrated musician whose songs about love, loss and hope continue to move listeners around the world.
