SUMMARY:Remembering Charles Bukowski
DESCRIPTION:Remembering Charles Bukowski\nSunday\, August 20\, 2023 @ 2pm ET\nVirtual on Zoom\, register here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZIkceurrzsvGtLKg_bv0IY358lkec-u3qU2 \nSubmissions are open until August 13th at midnight. Send us a poem here. \nA reading from our Remembering anthology series. List of featured poets to be announced. \nCharles Bukowski (August 16\, 1920 – March 9\, 1994) was a prolific underground writer who used his poetry and prose to depict the depravity of urban life and the downtrodden in American society. A cult hero\, Bukowski relied on experience\, emotion\, and imagination in his work\, using direct language and violent and sexual imagery.  Bukowski’s work addresses the ordinary lives of poor Americans\, the act of writing\, alcohol\, relationships with women\, and the drudgery of work. The FBI kept a file on him as a result of his column Notes of a Dirty Old Man in the LA underground newspaper Open City. Bukowski published extensively in small literary magazines and with small presses beginning in the early 1940s and continuing on through the early 1990s. He wrote thousands of poems\, hundreds of short stories and six novels\, eventually publishing over sixty books during the course of his career. Some of these works include Burning in Water\, Drowning in Flame. Join us as poets continue the tradition.
