Literary Nonfiction. Commentary. Interviews. Translated from the French by Alison Ardron. There are several reasons for this book. The principle one is pleasure–the pure joy of returning to Charles Bukowski and to the Beats, by dipping into their legend–particularly since the Beat movement is now enjoying a lively revival of attention through new editions, appearances of previously unpublished material, exhibitions, and other events. There is also the pleasure of rediscovering Charles Bukowski, cult author whose reputation continues to grow steadily all over the world. The full drama of his humor, of his angers, memories, frustrations, and distinctive grace come to life during Jean-Francois Duval’s long interview with Buk: An Evening at Buk’s Place. The pleasure also consists of having a close look at the links and contradictions between Bukowski and the Beat constellation.
