About this product
Product Information
Legendary Californian writer Charles Bukowski, who died in 1994, became world famous for his semi- autobiographical books about low-life America. Classic novels like Post Office and Women made this one-time bum and lifelong alcoholic rich and famous. In this, the first ever critical biography of Bukowski, author Howard Sounes has drawn on years of exhaustive research - including new interviews with virtually all Bukowski's friends, his family and his many lovers, as well as unprecedented access to his private letters and unpublished writing - to reveal the extraordinary true story. Outrageous and often uproariously funny, the revelations in Locked in the Arms of a Crazy Life will surprise existing fans of Bukowski's work and delight those who are just discovering this great iconoclast. The biography is illustrated with over fifty never-before-published personal photographs and features unique contributions from movie star friends of Bukowski's.

Reviews
Sounes is obviously a fan, but he does not hesitate to debunk many of the myths that have grown around Bukowski, most of them spun by the man himself. Interestingly Sounes often uses dialogue to illustrate his story and although you have to question how orthodox this is in a biography, it is extremely effective in illustrating the type of person Bukowski was.

Although the item eventually arrived (reason for neutral), the shipping time was absurd. It well exceeded ebay’s delivery estimate, and the customer service people gave me the runaround each time instead of actually assisting or providing proof they had done anything but create a shipping label. They gave me “USPS response time” spill each time, but I ordered other things after this one that arrived WELL before it, so I’m not sure what their issue is.
