Bukowski, Charles

CONFESSIONS OF A MAN INSANE ENOUGH TO LIVE WITH BEASTS

Bensenville, IL: Mimeo Press, 1965. First Edition. Item #6344

First Printing, limited to no more than 500 copies. Slim octavo (21.5cm); variously-colored mimeographed sheets, stapled into pink and black pictorial card wrappers; [52]pp. Some trivial dusty spots to wrappers, else a bright, Fine copy. This "long short story" marks an important debut, as it introduced readers to Bukowski's alter-ego and recurring character Henry Chinaski. An uncommonly well-preserved copy of this early title; the pink wrappers nearly always fade to grey or white, even on the best of copies. Krumhansl 17; Dorbin A8.
