The Favourite Game is the first novel by Leonard Cohen. It was published in the fall of 1963 before he began to pursue a career as singer-songwriter. The novel is a semiautobiographical portrait of a young Jew with a vocation for poetry in a world in which the "favourite game" is love.
It is part of the New Canadian Library book series, with an afterword by Paul Quarrington.
