About This Novel

"Byron of Rock and Roll" is a wonderful book that combines poetry and painting, recreating his life roles as a poet, writer, singer, painter, and monk. It was jointly translated by writer Kong Yalei and poet Bei Dao. This book is a collection of Cohen's sincere and moving poems in the form of pictures and texts. It contains nearly a hundred large and small paintings by Cohen, interspersed with nearly a hundred poems. The mischievous and provocative paintings are in perfect contrast with the poems that are meditative, beginningless and yet vaguely dark and humorous. It is a wonderful book that can be sung in a low voice, read silently, and also enjoy a visual feast. It was jointly translated by writer Kong Yalei and poet Bei Dao.
