About the Author

Charles Bukowski is one of America's best-known contemporary writers of poetry and prose, and, many would claim, its most influential and imitated poet. He was born in Andernach, Germany, and raised in Los Angeles, where he lived for fifty years. He published his first story in 1944, when he was twenty-four, and began writing poetry at the age of thirty-five. He died in San Pedro, California, on March 9, 1994, at the age of seventy-three, shortly after completing his last novel, Pulp.

5.0étoiles sur 5 An Early, Great Collection - MUST HAVE!, Juil 2 2004
Par Un client
SOUTH OF NO NORTH by Charles Bukowski, is a GREAT collection of short stories, including many of his early published chapbooks, many of which lay the groundwork for his novels like POST OFFICE. Bukowski started writing short stories twenty years before he hit the poetry -- the bottle was in between and, seemingly, forever -- and his stories are haunting, often surreal, the way Robert Crumb's comics are unique, even disturbing. You will find where he started, in stories that include glimpses into his "lost" years when he was a drifting worker and bum. When he works in the desert carrying railroad ties, you feel the slivers in his gloveless hands, and you feel what it may have been that drove him to all the rest. SOUTH OF NO NORTH is his early best work. If you like Buk, definitely pick of this copy to keep near your favorite Buk novels like POST OFFICE, WOMEN, FACTOTUM. Along with this collection, I must recommend another Amazon quick-pick, THE LOSERS CLUB by Richard Perez, obviously influenced by the great, one-of-a-kind Bukowski.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Aspiring writers, read and heed., Fév 15 2004
Par Keith Nichols (Dallas, TX United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
Not all of Bukowski's enormous output of poetry is of equally high quality, but I've yet to read a Bukowski short story that wasn't well crafted. Whatever your attitude toward his subject matter and apparent philosophy of life, you must respect his lean and evocative prose style. Anyone trying to write should acquire his skill at conveying everything needed with the minimum of words. This is a trait shared by most good writing, and it can be acquired through practice. The first step is to know exactly what it is you want to tell.

If good writing can be learned, then why aren't we all renowned authors? That's where talent comes aboard, and talent is what showed Bukowski the universal and engaging elements around him and let him express them effectively via fictional and autobiographical characters.

5.0étoiles sur 5 great!, Nov. 19 2003
Par Kirk Alex - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
One of Bukowski's best. Not for stuffed shirts and the like.
The overrated, no-talent , degreed types continue to be bugged because they don't get it/him. I say: too bad. Because Bukowski continues to be read and is more popular than ever! This is a fine story collection. Original.
