Firstly, anything that takes us offline and out into the world can only be a good thing, if it means we will see a little less of you on here, so be it. Secondly, Alexandra Leaving is one of my favourite Leonard Cohen songs but I had not heard Sharon Robinson’s version before, it’s beautiful. She was such an important part of his life for so long, you would think she would be better known and appreciated. Thank you for sharing.

Thank you! I found it through a favourite author's post on social media a few years ago, so this feels like 'paying it forward'.

The writing that moves us to tears is generally the best.
