Or don't.Take a look at the comments...
Something else that I've learned. Thanks....having a circle jerk
I like tacos... and blades of grass that were once healthy before being urinated on by dogs and homeless people... I don't like tacos anymore...It's a book guys, it'll be in stores that sell books. Everyone calm down. Get a taco and take it easy.
the Cooney-books of letters have them and I use them quite often. This feature is priceless.an Index of Names
That would be a nice addition. Of course it would be a nice addition to this thread too. Just saying.A "who's who" might be included in the paperback edition.

A Who's who would be real nice and more important than an index.A "who's who" might be included in the paperback edition. I don't think it will feature an Index of Names, though.
that's right. I also ordered my amount of books for the bukowski-shop directly from Canongate (scottish btw) to avoid the insanely high shipping-cost from the US.a book from English Canongate
hopefully, Canongate will deliver my order in time, so I'll be able to bring a stack of the title with me.will you have some books in your luggage ?
It would seem that it's Canongate in the UK, yes. I'm talking to them about something to do with the book (more tomorrow). I don't know anything about the relationship between the companies, if one is a subsidiary or whether it's just a typically confounding international arrangement.

(still it's over 30 British Pounds shipping for 30 copies)
I'm talking to them about giving away some copies of the book (to UK forum members).You're talking with Canongate about the book? That sounds interesting. Maybe you could ask them if the look their version of the book is exactly the same as the one from Ecco
that's elegant.Black on black, with just a shade more black.
A couple of new pieces ..
such an unplanned stop did justify all the trials and tribulations, and that reaching the finish line was no longer necessary. What mattered most was capturing the magic of the moment.
I asked Linda about The Outsider of the Year award, which The Outsider magazine editors had given Bukowski in 1963. Linda said that Bukowski was extremely proud of that award. It was still hanging on a wall next to the kitchen. It’s still there. That night, while I was putting the finishing touches to On Writing and Linda was sitting on the couch watching Downton Abbey, I looked up and I saw the award. I recalled what Bukowski said to The Outsider editors upon accepting it: “I am still in a fog on this Award business and walk around tasting it on the end of my tongue. There is a lot of child in me. [...] This is an odd day. I almost feel good.” Although Bukowski never wrote a book on writing, I hoped the child in him would feel good about On Writing coming into life some two decades after his death. I did feel good. On Writing would soon be published for readers to enjoy, which is all that really matters when it comes down to writing. Writing can be entertaining, Bukowski said over and over again, let’s not get too holy about it. I couldn’t agree more.
...and that's Grade A Steve McQueen Cool, well done cirerita.That's ok, no need to take it down --plus, I think you couldn't take it down anyway after 30 minutes or so.
...could have stopped one sentence earlier...

a writer whose best prose and poetry is enlivened by deft jump cuts, register shifts and juxtapositions both ridiculous and beautiful
:rolleyes:
this weekend, when Abel (aka cirerita) was in Germany, I had the chance to compare the two versions directly and the US got it more beautiful BY FAR.[...] if the look their version of the book is exactly the same as the one from Ecco [...]
I'll back that Kickstarter.to support my attempts to buy me a castle in the Black-forest.
