About this title

Synopsis

A collection of never-before-published poems by the late influential poet and hard-drinking wild man of literature features more of his raw, tough poetry about such subjects as booze, work, and women. 30,000 first printing.

From the Back Cover

A volume of never-before-collected poems from America’s most imitated and influential poet

In the literary pantheon, Charles Bukowski remains a counterculture icon. A hard-drinking wild man of literature, a stubborn outsider to the poetry world, he has struck a chord with generations of readers, writing raw, tough poetry about booze, work, and women that speaks to his fans as being "real" and, like the work of the Beats, even dangerous.

Edited by his longtime publisher John Martin of Black Sparrow Press, The Continual Condition includes more of this legend's never-before-collected poems.
