Favor!!!! (1 Viewer)

i have never read Bukowski, and nor do i want to. NO OFFENSE. My friend says she loves his work and that hes her favorite author and etc. I want to get her a gift and i figured it be a book from him, NOW since i don't read Bukowski i don't know which book I should get for her.

RECOMMEND ME ONE, NOT THE MOST POPULAR ONE BECAUSE SHE PROBABLY READ IT ALREADY BUT A GOOD/NICE ONE.


HELP ME OUT.


thank you.
 
There's a lot to choose from, and if you just read a few of these threads, you'll quickly get some opinions.

Do you know if she's read his novels or short stories or poetry?

A recently published poetry collection 'The Pleasures of the Damned' is such a massive book with many of Bukowski's best and most popular poems, that it would make a nice gift.
 
Even as a longtime Bukowski fan, I also found Run With the Hunted to be a nice volume. I agree with Pleasures of the Damned being a great collection of poetry, but Run With the Hunted is a nice hodgepodge of poems and prose, mixing in excerpts from the novels, short stories and poetry. Just my two cents' worth.
 
I love this question. And it can be adapted for use in so many situations!

Yeah Harry, I really like Run With the Hunted too. Only problem was, soon after when I bought South of No North there wasn't much to read that I hadn't already seen. But it is a great sampler. In fact, if I remember correctly, I received my copy of Run With as a birthday gift.
