I picked up the latest LA Weekly and there is a three page Bukowski spread complete with an illustration and a piece first published on May 19, 1972 in the LA Free Press that is included in the new book from City Lights.
Anyone in the LA area might like to check it out if they haven't picked up the book yet. I had a friend pick up a hardcover first edition for me from City Lights and should be in my dirty hands next week. I'm pretty stoked.
Anyway, just wanted to give a heads up to anyone else here in Southern California. On that subject (or not) has anyone checked out Bukowski in Pictures by Howard Sounes? Some good photos of Hank, his women and where he lived not in the usual biographies. Plus some copies of poems from broadsides etc. Definitely was worth my $17.
