“More Notes of a Dirty Old Man” | City Lights

Submitted by the Event Organizer

After toiling in obscurity for years, Charles Bukowski found fame in 1967 with his autobiographical newspaper column, “Notes of a Dirty Old Man,” and a book of that name in 1969. He continued writing this column, from its inception in Open City to its conclusion in High Times, through the mid-1980s. More Notes of a Dirty Old Man gathers many uncollected gems from the column’s 20-year run. These stories and essays haven’t been seen in decades, making More a valuable addition to Bukowski’s oeuvre.

Bukowski has been dead for years, but Bukowski scholar David Stephen Calonne edited this collection and will be discussing and reading from the book.
