In this new interpretation of the life and work of the American poet, short-story writer and novelist Charles Bukowski, David Stephen Calonne examines Bukowskis writings, colourful life and the desperate conditions of his lifestyle, looking at the literary traditions that influenced him and discussing his unique place in world literature. §Bukowski was born in Germany and raised in the United States, a schism that Calonne shows to be crucial in the writers development. From the influence of Germanys literary and intellectual traditions to the writers traumatic childhood, Charles Bukowski explores the effect the writers hybrid identity had on the themes and content of his work. Exploring several unknown works of fiction and poetry created in the early years of his career, the many volumes of poetry published with Black Sparrow Press, major works of fiction like Post Office and Factotum, as well as feature films such as the Mickey Rourke-starring Barfly, Calonne catalogues and dissects the many versions of Bukowski created by the writer and his followers.§A concise yet comprehensive new account, Charles Bukowski will appeal to the wide audience already familiar with this prolific, influential figure, as well as being an invaluable introduction to those new to Bukowskis work and who wish to know more.
