    Donne

    Le donne per Bukowski (forse non soltanto per lui) sono state un'attrazione costante e prepotente, un sogno e un bisogno che non si è mai interrotto, un desiderio che non ha mai conosciuto pause. In questo, che è il suo romanzo più esplicitamente erotico, Bukowski racconta con strepitosa immediatezza le sue avventure d'amore, vere o immaginarie che siano. Storie tumultuose, incontri tra lo sguaiato e il grottesco, memorabili o miserabili prodezze, dialoghi enormemente e dolcemente sboccati, sullo sfondo di un'esistenza randagia, segnata da maratone alcoliche, assillata dalla ricerca di denaro, vissuta sempre e rigorosamente 'on the road'. Un mondo di picari audaci e pezzenti che nessuno ha saputo far vivere nelle pagine di un romanzo con l'intensità e l'efficacia di Bukowski.

  5. On Drinking
    1. Charles , Bukowski

    On Drinking

    The definitive collection of works on a subject that inspired and haunted Charles Bukowski for his entire life: alcohol. Charles Bukowski turns to the bottle in this revelatory collection of poetry and prose that includes some of the writer’s best and most lasting work. A self-proclaimed “dirty old man,” Bukowski used alcohol as muse and as fuel, a conflicted relationship responsible for some of his darkest moments as well as some of his most joyful and illuminating. In On Drinking, Bukowski expert Abel Debritto has collected the writer’s most profound, funny, and memorable work on his ups and downs with the hard stuff—a topic that allowed Bukowski to explore some of life’s most pressing questions. Through drink, Bukowski is able to be alone, to be with people, to be a poet, a lover, and a friend—though often at great cost. As Bukowski writes in a poem simply titled “drinking”: “for me / it was or / is / a manner of / dying / with boots on / and gun / smoking and a / symphony music background.” On Drinking is a powerful testament to the pleasures and miseries of a life in drink, and a window into the soul of one of our most beloved and enduring writers.

    Edited by Abel Debritto, the definitive collection of poems from an influential writer whose transgressive legacy and raw, funny, and acutely observant writing has left an enduring mark on modern culture.

With his acute eye for the ridiculous and the troubled, Bukowski speaks to the deepest longings and strangest predilections of the human experience. Gloomy yet hopeful, this is tough, unrelenting poetry touched by grace. This is Essential Bukowski.
