About This Item
A book of poems dedicated to Bukowski's first love, Jane, in which we find the author particularly vulnerable. Although their romantic relationship had ended well before Jane died in 1962, Bukowski was with her in her final days and mourned her afterwards. Multiple poems express the author's longing for their lost love. In addition to vivid and emotional descriptions, readers will delight in the literary references peppered throughout the poems.
Krumhansl 32. Fine in Very Good + dust jacket.
Synopsis
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. He was born in Andernach, Germany, and raised in Los Angeles, where he lived for fifty years. He published his first story in 1944, when he was twenty-four, and began writing poetry at the age of thirty-five. He died in San Pedro, California, on March 9, 1994, at the age of seventy-three, shortly after completing his last novel, Pulp (1994).
