About the Author
Charles Bukowsk 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 1920 in Andernach, Germany, to an American soldier father and a German mother, and brought to the United States at the age of three. He was raised in Los Angeles and lived there 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.

Acetate jacket shows mild edge wear with surface scratches to gloss, rubbing, mild fading. Book is tight, square and firm. Top and bottom panel edges with nicks. Interior clean and unmarked. Interestingly, this copy is un-signed by the author to the rear colophon, though the blue binding and colophon are intended for signed copies only. After correspondence with the publisher, it is determined that this signature was simply "missed" and is perhaps the only unsigned copy with the blue binding. Dust Jacket: Near Fine Hardcover: Near Fine "War All the Time is a selection of poetry from the early 1980s. Charles Bukowski shows that he is still as pure as ever but he has evolved into a slightly happier man that has found some fame and love. These poems show how he grapples with his past and future colliding. Bukowski published his first story when he was twenty-four and began writing poetry at the age of thirty-five. His first book of poetry was published in 1959; he went on to publish more than forty-five books of poetry and prose, including Pulp (1994), Screams from the Balcony (1993), and The Last Night of the Earth Poems (1992).".
