About This Item
San Francisco, CA: City Lights Books, 1983. Paperback. Near Fine. 1983 Reprint of part 2 of Erections, ejaculations, exhibitions and general tales of ordinary madness; Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; With Bukowski, there seems to be no middle ground - people seem either to love him or hate him. Tales of his own life and doings are as wild and weird as the very stories he writes. In a sense, Bukowski is a legend in his time ... a madman, a recluse, a lover ... tender, vicious ... never the same ... these are exceptional stories that come pounding out of his violent and depraved life ... horrible and holy, you cannot read them and ever come away the same again.
Synopsis
Tales of Ordinary Madness is a collection of short stories by Charles Bukowski that are united by his usual themes of desperate, lonely individuals with dead-end jobs, sexual perversions, and rife with a need for real connections in a careless world.
