A Bukowski Sampler: 46 Early Charles Bukowski Poems and Excerpt from First Unpublished Novel
This is the second edition of “A Bukowski Sampler”, edited by Doug Blazek and published by Druid Books out of Madison, Wisconsin, in 1971.
It is 77 pages long and contains 46 Charles Bukowski Poems and several drawings.
But what makes this chapbook really fascinating is a five-page excerpt from Charles Bukowski’s first attempt at a novel, "The Way the Dead Love”, which was never published.
This copy is in Near Fine ++ condition. While it looks like a touch of sunning to the spine, it's really just the ink on the paper having been stretched when the cover was folded to make a booklet.
