    Help with choosing a poem

    If you had to say good bye to a friend, which one of Buk's poems would you use to say good bye? Say you haven't parted amicably with your friend, but you still feel a lot of warmth and love for him. He has been one of the most important people in your life, for good and for bad, but...

    Seen any good movies lately? - Films you MUST see

    I watched Jarmusch's Ghost Dog recently and I loved every minute of it. There is an Italian film around called The Family Friend (L'amico di famiglia is the original title) and the actor that plays the main character, Giacomo Rizzo, reminded me a lot of Buk. A lot. Here is a photogram from...

    Bukowski tattoos

    In guess the typescript will also depend on where you want your tattoo done. I think the sentence can look pretty neat if tattooed on the top of your back (that's my opinion only, of course). Will you post a picture of the finished work please?

    blood sausage

    Hey, hold on a minute. I'm a girl! I will never be a prick :D And it's true that everyone in here is witty; it's just that some, like me, are the exception to the rule ;)

    A Bukowski line that made you laugh out loud!

    HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!! Well that's true! Look at my onceupoatimefriend Thomas, a biker from Oslo: a drunken guy who loves Buk because of his (Buk's) drunken exploits.

    Favorite line from Buk?

    Oh there are so many lines... I can't really choose just a single one, because it always has to go with the context -for me at least. The best lines of all, the ones which really make me think 'oh the gods these are the lines which make me tremble' are the ones below: 'We are like roses that...

    Movies you may like if you like bukowski

    Oh the gods, when I saw this the first time I just couldn't get it out of my mind. I just couldn't. I was going through the scences in my mind trying to figure out when I could jump into the story and save Nick Cage's character. I think the documentary by Sarah George entitled Catching Out...

    So, what other poets get you like Bukowski does?

    Joolz Denby, Paul Verlaine, Emily Dickinson. I also like Old Norse and Old English poetry :) Of the Beat poets I like...no one! I don't know why. I dodn't even see Buk as a Beat poet like a lot of people do.

    Henry Rollins

    I LOVE Henry Rollins' works. I have everything he has ever published. Strange eh considering that I don't particularly like his solo music (but I like Black Flag). I think Black Coffee Blues is a good starting point It made me become addicted to his way of seeing the world (which is not the...

    Hello! I'm Milla...

    Look at this picture: http://www.bukowski.net/photos/bukowski050.php He is so gorgeous in it, his face, his clothes, the attitude, everything. I like men with beards and scars, so most definitely to me he looks physically handsome. And of course I like his writings very much, his way of...

    When did you discover Bukowski?

    I think the first thing I read of Bukowski was in Italian, a translation of Bring me your love when I was still living in my village in Italy. I borrowed it from my local library, and when I did so, the librarian called my father to let him know I was reading 'inappropriate books' for my age...

    Hello! I'm Milla...

    ...and I like Bukowski :D I have been reading his works for over 20 years now, and I have to admit I like his poetry more than I like his novels. He was a very handsome man, with a romantic kind of life, and this of course is what attracts a gal like me to this man. I sometimes post his...

    'So Alone' Ecco hardcover?

    Hi! I am the owner of that blog, and the owner of the book :) The book looks like that because I had the covers laminated. It is one of the books I KNOW I will carry with me whenever and wherever I move so I thought I should treat it properly by making the covers stronger. Mistery solved...
