Henry Charles Bukowski költő, író.

Otthona az amerikai Los Angeles volt, melynek földrajzi adottságai és atmoszférája erősen befolyásolta Bukowski munkásságát. Stílusa nagy hatással volt kortársaira, akik gyakran utánozták azt. Ő maga termékeny író volt, több ezer költeményt, több száz novellát és hat regényt jegyez; több mint ötven könyve jelent meg nyomtatásban. Rendszeresen emlegetik a skid row koszorús költőjeként.

“There's a bluebird in my heart that wants to get out
but I'm too tough for him,
I say, stay in there, I'm not going to let anybody see you.”

Bluebird
The Last Night of the Earth Poems (1992)
Kontextus: there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I'm too tough for him,
I say, stay in there, I'm not going
to let anybody see you.
... I only let him out
at night sometimes
when everybody's asleep.
... he's singing a little
in there, I haven't quite let him
die
... and it's nice enough to
make a man
weep, but I don't
weep, do
you?

“I was a man who thrived on solitude; without it I was like another man without food or water. Each day without solitude weakened me. I took no pride in my solitude; but I was dependent on it.”

Charles Bukowski könyv Factotum

Forrás: Factotum (1975), Ch. 17
Kontextus: I got into bed, opened the bottle, worked the pillow into a hard knot behind my back, took a deep breath, and sat in the dark looking out of the window. It was the first time I had been alone for five days. I was a man who thrived on solitude; without it I was like another man without food or water. Each day without solitude weakened me. I took no pride in my solitude; but I was dependent on it. The darkness of the room was like sunlight to me. I took a drink of wine.

“There are times when those eyes inside your brain stare back at you.”
