Charles Bukowski (1920-1994), one of the most outrageous and controversial figures of 20th-century American literature, was so prolific that many important pieces were never collected during his lifetime. Among the highlights are his first published short story, Aftermath of a Lengthy Rejection Slip; his last short story, The Other; his first and last essays; and the first installment of his famous Notes of a Dirty Old Man column. Portions is a substantial selection of these wide-ranging works, most of which have been unavailable since their original appearance in underground newspapers, literary journals, even porno mags.
Other significant works include the experimental title piece; a fictionalized The book contains meditations on his familiar themes (drinking, horse-racing, etc.) as well as singular discussions of such figures as Artaud, Pound, and the Rolling Stones.
