what's the story, here?

Greetings, All, I've just been wondering how everything's been going in the Buk realms? Any new novels that you guys found that you liked not Bukowski? and alike? Poems? How are your families and friends? I hope everyone is doing well! Warm Regards, Mukowski.

oh that's too much! AAAHAHAHAHA i'm fucking dying.

Excuse my suggestion. That was, rather, foolish of me.

My GOD! thank you for the insight guys, and zobraks for that link. I didn't realize it was this bad til' mjp went through and scratched the surface. Bukowski always stressed the whole "every line needs its energy," so adding sentences, especially when not needed, really weighs down some of the...

Oh this boils my blood! the "Young," already implies handsome. Why the hell would Martin add "handsome," unless Buk was really trying to give us a clear picture of the guy. From what I've noticed, he only really says "handsome," or "beautiful," when he is making a very huge comparison between...

Hahaha and "Here's the closet he hid when Baldy and Jim came lookin' for him." Personally, one of the saddest moments from that novel. I still remember tearing up reading that.

I'm not sure, but he talked about liking James Thurber. Judging by the year Thurber was born I would have a wild guess that he might have had an element of rawness/realism about his writing. Tell me what you think. I haven't read him, but I'm going to soon!

I'll start. My favorite excerpt(s) have got to be from "Women." and "Hot Water Music," In And Out And Over. First, from "Hot Water Music," In And Out And Over : I climbed out of the plane dragging my father’s overcoat and my stash of poems. Ann came up to me. I saw her face and I thought...
