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.

“For each Joan of Arc there is a Hitler perched at the other end of the teeter-totter. The old story of good and evil.”

Charles Bukowski könyv Factotum

Forrás: Factotum (1975), Ch. 56
Kontextus: The bus ran along a very narrow strip of cement that stood up out of the water with no guard-rail, no nothing; that's all there was to it. The bus driver leaned back and we roared along over this narrow cement strip surrounded by water and all the people in the bus, the twenty-five or forty or fifty-two people trusted him, but I never did. Sometimes it was a new driver, and I thought, how do they select these sons of bitches? There's deep water on both sides of us and with one error of judgement he'll kill us all. It was ridiculous. Suppose he had an argument with his wife that morning? Or cancer? Or visions of God? Bad teeth? Anything. He could do it. Dump us all. I knew that if I was driving that I would consider the possibility or desirability of drowning everybody. And sometimes, after just such considerations, possibility turns into reality. For each Joan of Arc there is a Hitler perched at the other end of the teeter-totter. The old story of good and evil. But none of the bus drivers ever dumped us. They were thinking instead of car payments, baseball scores, haircuts, vacations, enemas, family visits. There wasn't a real man in the whole shitload.
