The Flash of Lightning Behind the Mountain: New Poems by Charles Bukowski
5.0
Wow, this is my 1000th book.
Neat.
I’m surprised I’m giving this five stars, TBH. But there’s a vulnerability in these poems I don’t remember seeing when I’d read earlier Bukowski. There’s also a brutal economy to the prose that gets across his images and themes in so few words that I found really impressive.
