Product Details
- “The Walt Whitman of Los Angeles.”—Joyce Carol Oates, bestselling author“He brought everybody down to earth, even the angels.”—Leonard Cohen, songwriterBurning in Water, Drowning in Flame is poetry full of gambling, drinking and women. Charles Bukowski writes realistically about the seedy underbelly of life.The poems in the first three sections of this book were published in three volumes: It Catches My Heart in its Hands, Crucifix in a Deathhand and At Terror Street and Agony Way.Charles Bukowski wrote in his introduction Looking at these poems written between 1955 and 1973 I like (for one reason or another) the last poems best. I am pleased with this. I have, of course, no idea what shape my future poems will take, or even if I will write any, because I have no idea how long I will go on living, but since I began writing poetry quite late in life, at the age of 35, I like to think they'll give me a few extra years now, at this end. Meanwhile, the poems that follow will have to do.

United States Editorial Review
Burning in Water, Drowning in Flame is a collection of Charles Bukowski's earlier poetry that is full of raw emotions and a keen eye for reality. Bukowski's writing is sharp and real, depicting his life filled with drunken nights, sex, violence, and the struggles of everyday life. While some may find his language and realities distasteful, others appreciate his unfiltered and honest portrayal. The book itself is of lower quality, with cheap paper used by the publisher, Ecco.
