Nope. Obviously :D

How much money did Hank's Mom give him when he left home? Where were they when she gave him the money?

 

[james]

she gave him ten dollars to get a room downtown after the old man found and read his short stories. she was hiding behind a bush, waiting for hank to get home to warn him. they were walking toward longwood when she gave the $ to him i believe...

 

[Gerard K H Love]

Correct james. Both questons.
Your it.

 

[james]

ok, i have one, but it's a Black Sparrow question. not exactly buk, but close enough i suppose...

did the Black Sparrow Press ever publish hunter thompson? if so, when and where?

 

[bospress.net]

Yes! He was published in Thus Spake the Corpse, Volume 1 (1999).... They are excerpts from a book of letters.

I cannot think of any other times that BSP would have published him...

Bill

 

[james]

you are correct, sir! i didn't know this until i bought a copy of that book on ebay the other day...

 

[bospress.net]

Ok. Keeping along these lines. Buk was the first poet that Black Sparrow Press published. Who was the second?

Bill

 

[bluebottle]

diane wakowski (keeping with the 'ski's)?

 

[mjp]

Wakoski didn't make an appearance until Black Sparrow publication #27. The name Bill is looking for appears on the fifth BSP broadside.

I would answer, but it wouldn't be fair, since Seamus Cooney's The Black Sparrow Press - A Checklist, which details the first 100 publications, is sitting right here in front of me. ;)

 

[tinux]

Clayton Eshleman?

 

[HarryC13]

Let me throw my hat in the ring. Robert Creeley?

 

[mjp]

No and no. Fiendish question, Bill. :)

 

[cirerita]

Oh, everybody knows that BSP published Bukowski only ;)

 

[james]

[bluebottle]

jack micheline i know it's wrong - mjp, since you are the ringer come say the answer!

 

[Purple Stickpin]

We are indeed waiting...

 

[Father Luke]

Father Luke?

 

[mjp]

Michael Forrest, MASS FOR SMALL THINGS, broadside, 14 1/2" x 10", September 1966, $5, 30 signed copies.

 

[bluebottle]

*sigh* next question?

 

[bospress.net]

mjp is right.... Only someone with one of those two biblios would know that.... Sorry. They are a cool look into what the early BSP was into... Well worth picking up, although the later one is more complete.

Bill

 

[Father Luke]

So it's mjp's turn.

 

[mjp]

Gah.

Umm...

How may stand-alone (not bound in to the regular issue of Wormwood) Bukowski chapbooks and "special sections" did Wormwood Review produce?
