I'd say, if you like Bukowski, you'd probably like Paul Celan.
What say you?
A little sample for you...
Count up the almonds
Count up the almonds,
count what was bitter and kept you waking,
count me in too:
I sought your eye when you looked out and no one saw you,
I spun that secret...
I remember reading somewhere, some time ago, that Bukowski's real surname wasn't infact Bukowski, but something quite similar. I think it was just a different suffix, but I really can't remember what.
Anyone know what it was?
