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 1920 in Andernach, Germany, to an American soldier father and a German mother, and brought to the United States at the age of two. He was raised in Los Angeles and lived there for over fifty years. He died in San Pedro, California, on March 9, 1994, at the age of seventy-three, shortly after completing his last novel, Pulp.
Abel Debritto, a former Fulbright scholar and current Marie Curie fellow, works in the digital humanities. He is the author of Charles Bukowski, King of the Underground, and the editor of the Bukowski collections On Writing, On Cats, and On Love.

First Trade Printing. A Fine tight unread hardcover copy with acetate dust jacket. This second volume of Bukowski's letters takes up where volume one left off in the 1960s and continues into the next decade. During this period Bukowski is liberated from the drudgery of his post office job and is now working as a full time writer thanks to a monthly stipend of $100 from his publisher John Martin. We read of Bukowski's growing popularity and his personal shift from struggling writer to a successful man of letters and property. Seller Inventory # 26813
