Notes of a Dirty Old Man

€10.90

Beginning in 1967, Bukowski wrote the column "Notes of A Dirty Old Man" for the underground newspaper Open City . Perennially drunk, broke and in search of a woman, Bukowski takes on the guise of a wise fool as he ventures through America's seedy lowlife. Peopled by Kerouac, Burroughs and other much less salubrious characters, his exploits provoke humour and despair, whilst highlighting the inherent beauty and futility of life.

Čārlza Bukovska (1920–1994) darbu fonā ir ASV četrdesmito – astoņdesmito gadu dzīve, īpaši sabiedrības zemāko slāņu dzīve, bet pamattēmas: cilvēka eksistenciālā kondīcija šajā fonā, gribēta un negribēta vardarbība pret sevi un citiem, depresija, atkarības (visupirms alkoholisms), paša bieži noliegta un apironizēta, tomēr taustīšanās pēc skaistuma un jūtu tīrības. Kaut ilgus gadus bijis viens no redzamākajiem t. s. kontrkultūras pārstāvjiem, tikai pēc nāves viņš beidzot nonāk globāli pamanāmas izdevniecības – HarperCollins – paspārnē, un vēl pēc tam tiek iekļauts kādā interneta portālā, kas saucas vienkārši un skaidri: Academy of American Poets.
