  1. Fantastisk samling
    Elin, 29 januari 2019

    Perfekt om man älskar Bukowskis dikter, eller poesi över huvud taget. Bra visuell presentation av texterna som gör att det känns mer äkta/riktigt, enligt hur originalen skrevs ned.

Likely to stand as the definitive volume of Bukowski's poems * * New York Times Book Review * * He brought everybody down to earth, even the angels -- LEONARD COHEN The best poet in America -- JEAN GENET A laureate of American low life * * Time * * Bukowski wrote poetry as minimal as a bullet. He could be funny and heartbreaking in the same sentence * * Sunday Herald * * This bulbous collection contains a frankly astonishing amount of poems - it's a paperback of such great dimensions that it could be wood-paneled and used as a small bar * * Dazed and Confused * * Extraordinary: unsentimental, vigorous and profound * * Good Book Guide * *

Övrig information

Charles Bukowski is one of America's best-known contemporary writers of poetry and prose, and, many would claim, its most influential and imitated poet. At the forefront of American counter-culture, his Beat Generation writing is widely celebrated. He was born in Germany in 1920 to an American soldier father and a German mother and was brought to the United States at the age of three. He grew up in Los Angeles and lived there for the majority of his life. During his lifetime he published more than forty-five books, including novels such as Factotum, Post Office and Ham on Rye. He died in 1994 shortly after completing his last novel, Pulp.
