Charles Bukowski Résumé

Charles Bukowski: Locked in the Arms of a Crazy Life Howard Sounes

Locked in the Arms of a Crazy Life is the classic biography of Charles Bukowski, the hard-drinking barfly whose semi-autobiographical books about low-life America made him a cult figure across the globe. Extensive original research and unique contributions from friends, family and associates - including Mickey Rourke, Robert Crumb, Sean Penn, Norman Mailer and Allen Ginsberg - as well as personal photographs and drawings by Buk himself make this a must for Bukowski devotees and new readers alike.

Charles Bukowski Avis

Wonderful - this is the first serious and thorough Bukowski biography. An excellent book about a remarkable man. * * Time Out * *
With no shortage of anecdotes, pictures or big names, this biography is so thorough and sharp that it may well be the last. * * Arena * *
This biography is an affectionate and thorough introduction that will not be rivaled for some time. Its effect is to revitalize rather than reduce Bukowski's work. * * Independent * *
A solid, informative and fascinating account - an excellent biography. * * Uncut * *
The dirty story of a dirty man, Howard Sounes's biography of Charles Bukowski confronts an ugly life with an unflinching stare . . . this according to some of Sounes's meticulously compiled sources, was the kind of man who would drive a friend to drink himself to death then try to have sex with his grieving widow. -- Victoria Segal * * Guardian * *
This is an appropriately gutsy biography of Charles Bukowski, the American poet and novelist who almost singlehandedly inspired a generation of would-be writers to believe that you could spend your entire life getting drunk and still achieve a reputation as a cult author. -- Robert Collins * * Observer * *
