Merriam-Webster Dictionary

Published by Black Sparrow Press in 1981, Dangling in the Tournefortia is a large collection of Bukowski poems in a beautifully designed book.

This is the deluxe version of the book with an original painting signed “Buk”. It is hand is hand-number #50/100 and signed by Charles Bukowski on the colophon.

To me, the painting looks like a red dog attacking a black cat, but I get high a lot.

Both the book and the painting are in Fine condition.
