    Bukowski biographer and friend, poet Neeli Cherkovski, has died

    I moved back to SF from 2008 to 2016 and met Neeli a few times. Could not have been nicer. He'll be missed.

    Posthumous Books

    Yes. I compare his posthumous books to a band you really like that puts out a box set filled with a bunch of unreleased tracks. At first. you're all excited because its stuff you haven't heard before. After awhile, you understand why they didn't make the record. The only after death books I...
