Hands off my Bukowski, those are my babies.

If anybody happens to live in Sacramento there have been two of these on the shelf at the local Barnes and Noble for a long ass time.

I like the stuff from the 70's on best. I think quitting working had a lot to do with the change in his style. And, as previously mentioned, getting laid more than regularly. The 50's and early to mid 60's stuff is a bit cluttered and too wordsy in places for me. You can see the same parallel in...

Go for "Art" that's my favorite. And don't forget to get one with the original envelope.

Back in November I bid on a hardcover of Burning in Water on ebay. Someone beat me to it but didn't pay up, and only after spending the money, was I offered a second chance to buy it. Well it went up again and because I was working mr. ccpc got it for about five bucks less than I would paid for...

Dammitt, which one of you bastards outbid me. And how long till you put it back on eBay.

I do believe I've bought from Jeff as well, although I don't recall any hardcover bounty, so I'm assuming that's long gone, or squirreled away. I have occasionally found fair priced hardcovers in the deep dark recesses of ABE and other sites, usually because they were listed badly and were...

So thats it. I finally consult the mighty Bukowski.net brain trust, and I get one reply. This thing would be three pages long by now if the question had been "Did Bukowski like pickles?"

I'm sure this has come up before But Can anyone explain or make sense of how the later hardcover BSP editions were printed. Some seem more available than others, like Ham on Rye or Dangling. Some only seemed to be reprinted only once or twice. I don't think they printed a hardcover...

I'm gonna buy this and make a skateboard out of it. http://cgi.ebay.com/CHARLES-BUKOWSKI-PORTRAIT-Folk-Outsider-Art-Painting_W0QQitemZ220156366461QQihZ012QQcategoryZ20158QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Look at this, appears to be the same thing, maybe Buk did # some of these. Or maybe Barbara Martin suffered epileptic seizures frequently. http://cgi.ebay.com/Dangling-in-the-Tournefortia-Bukowski-K71c-signed_W0QQitemZ250168404254QQihZ015QQcategoryZ29223QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I'm sure one of you guys has Sean Penn's number. Why don't you give him a call? I believe Johnny Depp has already adopted a dead famous writer, Hunter Thompson. Sean hasn't been in any pirate movies lately, but I'm sure he's doin' OK He'll be glad to help.

Buk said a lot of shit when he was drunk, well anytime, just to get reactions, and he changed his position on things frequently, like Hemmingway, so it hard to tell. And then there's the thing when he was in college? is it, where he was pretending, or so he says, to side with the Nazis, just...

It took me a while The picture is bad and the description seemed like gibberish At first I thought it was some kind of Jesus candle Or maybe a pack of incense (Bukowski incense, what would that smell like) But a skateboard, really? I'm wondering if this board was part of some kind of "great...

Ground Chuck? Chuck Taylor?
