RE: Poem of the day. Charles Bukowski - The Great Escape

in #poetry7 years ago (edited)

Dont say you have not heard about Bukowski. :) I must write then more about the american literature in the postmodern world :) I also prefer other forms of poetry because many young contemporary poets use the free verse and in my view they conceal their superficiality behind their pangs and pseudo-exaltation. But sometimes you can find some treasure there too :)

Sort:  

Busted! I suffer from a bad case of arrested development when it comes to American literature. I'm good up until Fitzgerald. Not too keen on Hemingway, Faulkner or Steinbeck, and after that zilch.
So your posts are all the more valuable inasmuch as I'm sure I'll discover new authors like Bukowski.
