Book description
Charles Bukowski was one of America's best-known writers and one of
its most influential and imitated poets. His slum upbringing, his
succession of menial jobs and his experience of gritty urban America
are all reflected in his Best Generation writing and poetry, for which
he became a cult figure.
Although in his lifetime Bukowski published over 45 books of poetry,
hundreds of his poems were reserved for publication after his death.
Following on from the success of three previous volumes, this fourth
collection of these unique and previously unpublished poems, which
Bukowski considered to be among his finest work, is essential for all
readers and collectors of one of the most distinctive writers of
recent years.
