From reviews of the hardcover edition: "[Various Positions is] more a literary than a rock bio--quiet of tone, serious without being worshipful. Drawing on Cohen’s own archives, Nadel plots aspects of Cohen’s life--Zen, love affairs, drug use--against the evolution of his writing. He fashions a biography that is revealing but also mindful of its subject at his best." --Booklist "An excellent biography, one that manages to be both thoroughly scholarly and genuinely entertaining at the same time." --Montreal Gazette "An honest and sympathetic biography." --New York Times
