Tinux is right. Your turn to ask one, my friend.
Paget Press does indeed look like BSP, but that may be because they were bound by Earle Grey bookbinders. I have also seen a high end bookseller, who would release his yearly catalog that was bound by them. It was beatiful. As mysterious as Paget Press was, I don;t think that they were a BSP joint...

Hi,
I would say that it had to be to his woman at the time as he mentions "the knocking on our floor".
So, it would have to be Linda King or FrancEye.
I say that it is "Me and your Sometimes Love Poems" by Bukowski and Linda King.
Of course, there is a pretty good chance that I'm WAY off on this. It seems like it must be an early book, and I almost think that it must be earlier than Linda King....

My second guess is "Cold Dogs in the Courtyard" and it would be dedicated to FranceYe. Cold Dogs was the only book that Bukowski actually edited, so it is possible that he would have typed the ms and sent it in....
by the way... If I get this right, I'll pass the queston on to Ponder.

Thank you kind, ROC & Bill.
An easy one, but an important one!
The buknet calendar tells us the birthday of Marina Louise Bukowski (1964)
but it doesn't tell us the birthday of Linda Lee Bukowski!
Shame on you, MJP!
So, when is it?
p.s. Is it tell or tells...
(Hard to tell for a foreigner who didn't study English...)

You did? Japanese is not easy. Try to translate this:
Ik reed naar Sara's huis. Ik had ook verscheidene flessen wijn bij
me. Ik had er eerlijk gezegd eentje soldaat gemaakt terwijl ik me stond
te scheren. Ik schoor me zelden maar ik schoor me voor Sara's verjaar-
dag en voor Veteranen-avond. Ze was een goede vrouw. Ze had esprit
en haar celibaat was, vreemd genoeg, begrijpelijk. Ik bedoel, naar
haar zienswijze, behoorde het bewaard te worden voor een goede
man. Niet dat ik nou zo'n goede man was, maar haar allure zou goed
staan naast mijn allure, aan een cafétafeltje in Parijs als ik eindelijk
beroemd werd. Ze was innemend, kalm intellectueel, en bovendien
had ze dat merkwaardige rood in het goud van haar haar. Het was bij-
na alsof ik tientallen jaren naar die kleur gezocht had... mis-
schien wel langer.
That's what Mr. Chinaski says...
Veterans day.
Your turn, 1fsh2fsh!

It is what it is
I drove to Sara's house. I had some different bottles of wine with me. I had drunk one while shaving. I seldom shaved myself but I shaved for Sara's Birthday and for veterans evening. She was a good woman. She had spirit and her celibacy was, strangely enough, understandable.
I guess she intended to save herself for a good man. Not that I was a good man, but her class would stand well beside my class in a Parisian café when I was at last famous. She was endearing, calmly intellectual, and moreover she had that remarkable red in the gold of her hair. It was almost as that was the colour I had strived to find for dozens of years .. perhaps even longer.
How's that Ponder?
