This is a selection of Charles Bukowski's poems about love in its many forms, from tender moments to failures, with themes of lust, loneliness, drinking and heartbreak. They are written in the direct, unadorned voice that made him famous, often drawn from his life in Los Angeles.
For readers of Bukowski who want his love poems in one place. It also works as an entry for newcomers who prefer short, blunt poetry over long narratives. The poems are short and conversational, so the book suits reading a few at a time.
Inward-looking; an easy read.
Best for readers like The Empathetic Explorer. Which reader are you?
