The male Sylvia Plath
Neat
A compliment if anything
He was actually a better, more soulful prose writer than Plath, that straight As cat lady.
>>25513080She's the better poet, though.
Actually the male Rupi Kaur.
>>25512226did she write about whoring herself drunk in the bars and still showing up to her 9-5 bottom of the barrel job?
>/lit/ hates him because he portrayed reality as it actually was without romanticizing it
>>25513159he was pretty butthurt about his dad having to save money during great depression and being a meanie
>>25513159>portrayed reality as it actually wasSo did thousand of writers before and after him, but their claim to fame goes beyond writing slop while romanticizing their "tragic" life for the money and fame.
>>25513146If you read THE ROOMINGHOUSE MADRIGALS, you can track in real time how his heel turn to the “Chinaski” Fante-lite was a deliberate aesthetic move… Buk was shockingly well read and could be verbose when he wanted to be…. but, then, where’s the fun in that?
>>25512226What's his best work?
More like the male Rupi Kaur, same quality of poetry.
>>25514915This is more apt.Bukowski has almost nothing in common with Plath.
>>25512226>cunt deliver mail>cunt sort mail
>>25514912The Fiend
>>25514915>>25514917Plath herself is just a glorified Kaur.
>>25515051Bold claim. How so?
>>25513230will you ever actually pick up one of his books?
