Industry Reviews

Likely to stand as the definitive volume of Bukowski's poems * * New York Times Book Review * *
He brought everybody down to earth, even the angels -- LEONARD COHEN
The best poet in America -- JEAN GENET
A laureate of American low life * * Time * *
Bukowski wrote poetry as minimal as a bullet. He could be funny and heartbreaking in the same sentence * * Sunday Herald * *
This bulbous collection contains a frankly astonishing amount of poems - it's a paperback of such great dimensions that it could be wood-paneled and used as a small bar * * Dazed and Confused * *
Extraordinary: unsentimental, vigorous and profound * * Good Book Guide * *
