I've recently tried to google Gypsy Lou Webb - to see if she is still alive. Seems likes she is. Would be nearing 102 now. Does anyone have better information? This is the last i've seen https://www.nola.com/300/2017/09/loujon_press_french_quarter_history_09222017.html

As the above links prove he didn't disapper, but what did happen from 1955 onwards is that he began to appear in alot of little magazines - and quickly became widely published in the littles.

This is a tough joint (yea, yea, I've said it before).

also, running to a draw with "Play the piano drunk like a percussion instrument until the fingers begin to bleed a bit" I would say War all the Time and The Last Night of the Earth Poems.

i'm a little surprised, and happy - to hear Bukowski mentioned on Coronation street. He'll be mentioned on EastEnders next.

Thanks for posting this. Interesting.

The documentary "Born into This" (2003) and the Taylor Hackford 1973 documentary(black and white) are both excellent audio/visual sources to get you started. Both are on youtube, with the Taylor Hackford documentary uploaded in parts (perhaps 7, not sure).

Some mean kids in this forum.

I will submit my 2 cents

Brilliant stuff! You are heralded!

I never tire of Bukowski. His view becomes clearer and more vital every day. He speaks of the marrow of things and skips the metaphors and bore.

Good to know. I would like to attend but I am speak English only. Would that be an issue? Tony

I was chatting with her daughter on facebook - and thought it would be cool. Do you have contact details?

Would you consider her as a speaker?

Have your tried to get Pamela Miller? - as a speaker. I just (an hour ago) finished her book - and was impressed.

Thanks much! Sounds like something that cannot be missed. I was thinking whether my lack of German would be an problem.

Thanks! - for such a quick response. Do you have a link about the symposium? Perhaps an itinerary for the event? Would love to find out all about it - and will go! (one more question: percentage of international goers, as i'm fluent in German)

I've searched the internet to see if there are any scheduled events in 2017 in Europe or North America (German Bukowski Society is certainly active). Anyone know?

Interesting stuff. I've read through the thread and couldn't figure out what descendants she would have ( her sibling's grandchildren?).

Eileen Myles, maybe. (Although she would resist this idea!)

She lives in Slidell, Louisiana - still alive by all counts.

did that with ''the pleasures of the damned''

“those who escape hell however never talk about it and nothing much bothers them after that.”

Love this book, well edited, older to newer. If you want to get a christmas gift for a newbie: this be the one!
