"Beautiful Loser" came out in the mid-1960s and is known as Canada's first postmodern novel. It is the most provocative and unruly work of Cohen, who is a poet, writer, singer, painter, and monk. He is known as the "Byron of rock and roll." The novel is set in Montreal in the 1960s and outlines a love triangle: an unknown scholar dedicated to the study of Indian tribes, his wife Edith, the last descendant of a certain Indian tribe, and the scholar's homosexual lover F. The three are entwined in a tangled relationship linked by sexual compulsion and the legend of a seventeenth-century Indian saint named Katherine Tinkawiser. The novel sometimes talks in sleep and sometimes howls, expressing people's desire for order and the terror of spiritual loneliness.

It is one of the most important novels in the Canadian literary world.

For example, it is written that Zhou Jin and Fan Jin spent their entire lives trying to pass the examination, and even when their beards turned gray, they still failed to pass the examination. Although life was extremely difficult, he still couldn't forget the imperial examination. Zhou Jin passed by an examination room and went in to watch.

Later, with the help of some small businessmen, he took the exam and won the sympathy of the examiner, and things turned around. When he passed the exam, those who had ridiculed him in the past came to flatter him and praised him as the most knowledgeable person. Another example is Fan Jin. Before he passed the imperial examination, his family was so poor that he had no rice to cook with, so he went to the market to sell an old hen. When he learned that he had won the election, he was so happy that he became a madman. Fortunately, his father-in-law Hu Tuhu slapped him and he regained consciousness.
