Charles Bukowski

Charles Bukowski is the fucking MAN. A writer, a poet, a genius, you know it, Bukowski is the slum god of the human soul. I've recently come across some of his spoken word set to classical music which works oh-so-well, because that's what he listened to as he drank and wrote. "The Genius Of the Crowd" and "Dinosauria, We" are absolutely bruising poems, the latter popping up in a recent MF Doom song ("Cellz"). All of these are seminal however, full of the haggard wisdom inherent in his novels. Speaking of which, I can't recommend you read Post Office, Women, and Hollywood, enough because all three of those are life changing, you'll reference them (at least cognitively) for the rest of your life.
