NASA's Curiosity rover has captured its highest-resolution panorama yet of the Martian surface. Composed of more than 1,000 images taken during the 2019 Thanksgiving holiday and carefully assembled over the ensuing months, the composite contains 1.8 billion pixels of Martian landscape...

Collected in The Days Run Away Like Wild Horses Over The Hills.

Well, a more positive article (compared to the last one I posted). https://www.theguardian.com/books/booksblog/2007/sep/05/bukowski Quote: "Unfortunately, the posthumous poetry collections have been patchy at best. In an indisputable act of necrophilia, Ecco has been exploiting the dead...

I stumbled upon this article on Buk: https://blog.bookstellyouwhy.com/why-we-can-stop-reading-charles-bukowski This passage particularly bothers me: "And in this respect, there are many stronger writers, of superior artistry, perspective, depth, and temperament that beat Bukowski at his own...

One of my buddies got me this poster for my b-day a couple months ago. Thought I'd share... If anyone has any thoughts on frame style/mat color, I'm interested...

This issue has another of my top 10--"Poem for My 43rd Birthday"

One of my top 10s. "The Underground"

This version of "Face While Shaving" is different from the one in Madrigals: --contains the line "out of buried cities;" following "dumb ape wonder" --contains the line "from a swamp" following "like a plea"

Coastlines - No. 14 - Spring 1960 "Plea To A Passing Maid" "No Charge" "Love Is A Piece Of Paper Torn To Bits"

Approach No. 27 - 1958 - "The Gypsies Near Del Mar" (appears in The Roominghouse Madrigals - pg. 242 - 1988)

A nice piece of literary history. --Bukowski ad for Cold Dogs. Only $1.25....$1 with ad... --First appearance of Carver's first major story in a major lit mag. Later appeared in Best American Short Stories 1967 and would be the title of his first book of stories (1976).

After returning to this site after a long absence, and learning that John Martin mucked with Buk's writing (in many cases, criminally), my soul collapsed upon itself (damnit, I'm not overexaggerating). This one isn't too bad, I guess. It's hard to stomach that JM's tendrils have reached to my...

A friend (seriously, it's not me) of mine purchased the below book on ebay last week. It cost some bucks, but now after the fact, he just wants a warm and cozy that it's authentic. Appreciate the experts weighing in...

According to the database, this is uncollected...

For Quicksilver (vol. 13, No. 2, Summer 1960), the poem "Peace" appears (well, according to collectingbukowski.com). I happened to notice this mag was missing a poem and while surfing collectingbukowski, I stumbled on the correlation. I also think it appears in Days Run Over the Hills, so...

Thought I'd throw this out there. I enjoy seeing how people organize/display their collections, whatever they might be. For example, besides Buk, I collect hardbop jazz CDs (1955-1965 era). These can be organized by year, artist, label (or within the labels by artist or catalog number, etc.)...

This is the sort of post I was going to make back in 2006, but never got around to it...so, off the cuff... First exposure to Bukowski was back in Fall 1987 at Temple University, Philly, when one of my English major buddies said I should check out this writer, Bukowski, being profiled in the...
