	Robert Fulford's column about Typing: A Life in 26 Keys by Matt Cohen
		Cohen died in December, and his death gives the bizarre accusations in his book the authority of the grave, as a dead man's last printed words.
		Cohen names specific enemies, including Robert Weaver of CBC Radio and The Tamarack Review, William French, who was for many years the books columnist of The Globe and Mail -- and me, in an earlier life as editor of Saturday Night and columnist for The Toronto Star.
		Cohen says that when he was 45 years old, well-known and much-published, he felt like a hockey player who had always been on the verge of a great season but now found that his knees were giving out.

	Dear Heather - Leonard Cohen
		Cohen's voice has lowered even more since then to the deep base tone we know and love but it is often an oppressive weight to bear and sometimes it is not until listeners hear his songs transformed by others that they begin to appreciate the poetic and melodic beauty that lurks within his songs.
		Cohen's latest disc is an uneven collection of tracks that succeed only as much as the artist and his backup singers allow them to by means of their vocals.
		Cohen leans away from the more traditional instrumentations of song; most notably, the backbone of each song is the keyboard, not the guitar, and structures the rest of the harmony with tenor sax and Jew harp.

	Margaret Atwood - Matt Cohen (1942-1999)
		Matt Cohen liked to write the same story several different ways, from several different angles, and so I’ll do that now.
		When I heard Matt had died, the first image that came to mind was Matt in his brown felt hat with the wide brim, the hat he used for walking.
		Only last year – when Matt was already ill, but didn’t yet know it – the Toronto Arts Council called, because they needed someone to represent the virtues of their position to a committee of Toronto City Council.

	Matthew Yglesias: Long Philosophical Rant About Spider Man 2

		I gotta say, Matt, that aside from the word "eschatological", which I had to go look up, this was a very accessible rant for a non-philosophy person.

		Matt's moment culminates in his willingness to fight and his saying, "I'd been waiting to meet this guy for a long time." That ending surprised me. I did not foresee the looming fight when Matt and Eve were fencing, but now it feels inevitable.
		Matt in "Clicker" decides to fight; Donner steps into the cold and watches Rusty and the woman not his wife—two people he's been intimate with—dance together in the warm brightness.
		Matt in "Clicker at Tips" says, "Eye contact is it, the beginning, middle, and end." There's eye contact in "Evil Eye Allen" and in "At the Jim Bridger," when Donner and Rusty's eyes meet and hold.

	Typing by Matt Cohen
		After his death, it became clear that Cohen was a touchstone for many writers and readers in this country, at the same time as he was a dedicated outsider, a Jewish intellectual moving through a WASPish cultural woods.
		Cohen's memoir is rich in recollection, from his early days at Rochdale writing hip, stream-of-consciousness novels to his move to a farm near Kingston, Ontario, where the southern Ontario landscape captured his imagination and inspired such novels as The Disinherited, The Sweet Second Summer of Kitty Malone and, years later, Elizabeth and After.
		Shortly before his death in December 1999, Matt Cohen won the Governor General’s Award for his novel Elizabeth and After and the Harbourfront Festival Prize in honour of his life as a writer.
