Suzanne Verdal

[groupiesoutrageously]

Originally a poem, “Suzanne” was inspired by Leonard Cohen’s attraction to the ethereal Suzanne Verdal, who lived on the Saint Lawrence River in the mid-‘60s. She later described their friendship as “a spiritual union.” Said Cohen, “Everyone was in love with Suzanne.” [x]
