| book description |

The definitive collection of works on a subject that inspired and haunted Charles Bukowski for his entire life: alcohol Charles Bukowski turns to the bottle in this revelatory collection of poetry and prose that includes some of the writerâ€™s best and most lasting work. A self-proclaimed â€œdirty old man,â€ Bukowski used alcohol as muse and as fuel, a conflicted relationship responsible for some of his darkest moments as well as some of his most joyful and inspired. In On Drinking, Bukowski expert Abel Debritto has collected the writerâ€™s most profound, funny, and memorable work on his ups and downs with the hard stuffâ€”a topic that allowed Bukowski to explore some of lifeâ€™s most pressing questions. Through drink, Bukowski is able to be alone, to be with people, to be a poet, a lover, and a friendâ€”though often at great cost. As Bukowski writes in a poem simply titled â€œDrinking,â€: â€œfor me/it was or/is/a manner of/dying/with boots on/and gun/smoking and a/symphony music background.â€ On Drinking is a powerful testament to the pleasures and miseries of a life in drink, and a window into the soul of one of our most beloved and enduring writers.
