The linefeeds are inside quotes, so the PERL CSV lib can pick them up, and all you need to do is replace line feed with space inside the fields.
Doing CSV in PERL without using the CSV libs seems like bad form, reinventing the wheel. If there were quoted commas in your fields, this would fall apart, so it is not robust.

Image::ExifTool::Import(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Image::ExifTool::Import(3pm)
NAME
Image::ExifTool::Import - Import CSV and JSON database files
SYNOPSIS
use Image::ExifTool::Import qw(ReadCSV ReadJSON);
$err = ReadCSV($csvFile, \%database);
$err = ReadJSON($jsonfile, \%database);
DESCRIPTION
This module contains routines for importing tag information from CSV (Comma Separated Value) and JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) database
files.
EXPORTS
Exports nothing by default, but ReadCSV and ReadJSON may be exported.
METHODS
ReadCSV / ReadJSON
Read CSV or JSON file into a database hash.
Inputs:
0) CSV file name.
1) Hash reference for database object.
2) Optional flag to set '-' values to undef in the database. (Used for deleting tags.)
3) [ReadJSON only] Optional character set for converting Unicode escape sequences in strings. Defaults to "UTF8". See the ExifTool
Charset option for a list of valid settings.
Return Value:
These functions return an error string, or undef on success and populate the database hash with entries from the CSV or JSON file.
Entries are keyed based on the SourceFile column of the CSV or JSON information, and are stored as hash lookups of tag name/value for
each SourceFile.
