outsider of the year

[Digney in Burnaby]

Some really cool letters from Bukowski finished off the Outsider of the Year issue. Not sure how many have been collected. A look at 1962, the year Jane died and Buk's reaction to that and many other things happening. Sounds like September 1962 was a tough month for Bukowski, the outsider award perked him up, like the Mexican girl in the charity ward did years earlier (mentioned in one of these letters).

And to finish all this off, the last two pages of letters (that's it, that's all I got):
