Hi
I have been reading and decoding Bukowski for a long time, especially the poems. Modern poetry is a quiet obsession of mine, and his work sits on the same shelf in my mind as ee cummings, Pablo Neruda, Robert Bly, Tom Waits and Nick Cave.
I live in London, although my roots are Polish, and most evenings you will find me somewhere between jazz, blues, and a warm dim corner where a line can move through the body.
I joined this forum because I am curious about the way others read him, and how his lines land in different lives. I like conversations that move, that open unexpected doors, and I am looking forward to meeting the people here who read him with the same curiosity.
