What kinda people are we?

Most of us are alcoholics or ex-alcoholics.
Life failed us all.
This is the reason why we read and re-read Bukowski.
There is a lot of crap in the "all not Buk" section about music,
what's art and so fort. And Kings Of Leon have taken over the forum.

Have you read all the Buk novels?

I'm living in Europe, how about you?

Haha, awesome Ponder, awesome!

And welcome yselina24.

Thank you for the keenly and well put generalization of us the collective. The kings of Leon are a bunch of siblings with a good publicist. Ronnie

Yes, welcome,

you are caught in a warp zone with us, now.

Welcome, yselina!

I probably stand apart from a lot of Buk fans. I don't drink. I've never had a beer in my entire life. I do indulge in a sip of wine occasionally, but very seldom.

So I frequently read Buk with sober eyes.

I read more of his poetry than his novels. But Women is my favorite Buk novel so far.

Welcome yselina24. I think it would be interesting to meet the fans of Bukowski who don't post in forums. They may very well be as Ponder described so well, but they would not want to meet anyone. In fact, they may hate everyone. We may know some of them already.
