I had already listened to that episode of WTF, but going to youtube I see there is now the whole, almost 4 hours long Bukowski Tapes by Barbet Schroeder.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01541863702465505291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5789524189763910172.post-70859636073134827032014-03-31T19:04:49.827-07:002014-03-31T19:04:49.827-07:00Thanks for the book recommendations.

I found this video of Marc Maron reading Bukowski's poem 'The Shoelace' and thought it was pretty great:<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vK0TvJCrycluvyatoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12532183810993041757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5789524189763910172.post-73742343830624258372014-03-25T12:52:17.040-07:002014-03-25T12:52:17.040-07:00Thank you!

Generally, I prefer his poetry to his fiction as he seems more honest and less chest-puffing-out, but his novels are great too, in their own way. <br /><br />And Jason, I agree, this sketch is really spot on.

After Women you could try Ham on Rye, about his teenage years, or Love Is A Dog From Hell, if you want to check out his poetry.Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01541863702465505291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5789524189763910172.post-8629415285213848042014-03-22T09:27:08.525-07:002014-03-22T09:27:08.525-07:00Its pretty stunning how well this image approximat...Its pretty stunning how well this image approximates Bukowski with just a few lines. Nice. I finally started reading Bukowski pretty recently. "Post Office" was incredible and "Factotum" kept the sadness going nicely. I'm going to read "Women" next.luvyatoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12532183810993041757noreply@blogger.com
