A companion to On Writing and On Cats: A raw and tender poetry collection that captures the Dirty Old Man of American letters at his fiercest and most vulnerable, on a subject that hits home with all of us.
Charles Bukowski was a man of intense emotions, someone an editor once called a passionate madman. In On Love, we see Bukowski reckoning with the complications and exaltations of love, lust, and desire. Alternating between tough and gentle, sensitive and gritty, Bukowski lays bare the myriad facets of loveits selfishness and its narcissism, its randomness, its mystery and its misery, and, ultimately, its true joyfulness, endurance, and redemptive power.
Bukowski is brilliant on loveoften amusing, sometimes playful, and fleetingly sweet. On Love offers deep insight into Bukowski the man and the artist; whether writing about his daughter, his lover, his friends, or his work, he is piercingly honest and poignantly reflective, using love as a prism to see the world in all its beauty and cruelty, and his own fragile place in it. My love is a hummingbird sitting that quiet moment on the bough, he writes, as the same cat crouches.
Brutally honest, flecked with humor and pathos, On Love reveals Bukowski at his most candid and affecting.
What happens when America's laureate of the lowlife turns his unflinching eye to the heart?
- Unconventional Love Poems: Forget flowery verse. Bukowski explores love's randomness and misery alongside its fleeting joy, from cheap hotel rooms to the local bar.
- A Brutally Honest Voice: Experience the passionate madman at his most candid, laying bare the selfishness and narcissism of desire without flinching.
- Love, Lust, and Loss: A collection that reckons with every facet of human connection, from the raw carnality between lovers to the poignant affection for a daughter.
- Tender and Gritty Moments: Discover the surprising sweetness within the struggle, where love is a hummingbird sitting that quiet moment on the bough, as the same cat crouches.
