About The Book

In 1967, after toiling unrewarded for many years, Charles Bukowski found fame with his weekly autobiographical newspaper column, “Notes of a Dirty Old Man,” followed by a book of that name in 1969. He continued to write the column for almost 20 years, using it as a workshop in which to develop ideas for his later books. Yet over the course of this time, the prolific writer allowed many uncollected gems to fade into obscurity. More Notes of a Dirty Old Man: The Uncollected Columns gathers many of these fugitive pieces, unseen in decades, into a single volume. Filled with his usual obsessions — sex, booze, gambling — More Notes features Bukowski’s offbeat insights into politics and literature, his tortured relationships with women, and his lurid escapades on the poetry circuit. Highlighting his versatility, the book ranges from thinly veiled autobiography to fictional tales of dysfunctional suburbanites, disgraced politicians, and down-and-out sports promoters, climaxing with a long, hilarious adventure among French filmmakers, “My Friend, The Gambler,” based on his experiences making the movie Barfly. From his days at the post office through his later fame, More Notes follows the entire arc of Bukowski’s career, making it a valuable addition to his oeuvre.
