ON WRITING - CHARLES BUKOWSKI TASCHENBUCH

Charles Bukowki’s stories  poems  and novels have left an enduring mark on our culture. In this
collection of previously unpublished material—letters to publishers  editors  friends  and
fellow writers—Bukowski shares his insights on the art of creation. On Writing reveals an
artist brutally frank about the drudgery of work  and canny and uncompromising about the
absurdities of life—and of art. It illuminates the hard-edged  complex humanity of a true
American legend and countercultural icon—the “laureate of American lowlife” ( Time )—who
stoically recorded society’s downtrodden and depraved. It exposes an artist grounded in the
visceral  whose work reverberates with his central ideal: “Don’t try.” Piercing  poignant  and
often hilarious  On Writing is filled not only with memorable lines but also with Bukowski’s
trademark toughness  levened with moments of grace  pathos  and intimacy.
