Charles Bukowski’s stories, poems, and novels have left an enduring mark on our culture. In this collection of correspondence—letters to publishers, editors, friends, and fellow writers—the writer shares his insights on the art of creation.

On Writing reveals an artist brutally frank about the drudgery of work and canny and uncompromising about the absurdities of life—and of art. It illuminates the hard-edged, complex humanity of a true American legend and counterculture icon—the “laureate of American lowlife” (Time)—who stoically recorded society’s downtrodden and depraved. It exposes an artist grounded in the visceral, whose work reverberates with his central ideal: “Don't try.”

Piercing, poignant, and often hilarious, On Writing is filled not only with memorable lines but also with Bukowski’s trademark toughness, leavened with moments of grace, pathos, and intimacy.

Những câu chuyện, bài thơ và tiểu thuyết của Charles Bukowski đã để lại dấu ấn lâu dài trong nền văn hóa của chúng ta. Trong tập hợp thư từ này—thư gửi cho các nhà xuất bản, biên tập viên, bạn bè và những người đồng nghiệp—nhà văn chia sẻ những hiểu biết sâu sắc của mình về nghệ thuật sáng tạo.

On Writing tiết lộ một nghệ sĩ thẳng thắn một cách tàn bạo về sự vất vả của công việc và sự khôn ngoan và không khoan nhượng về những điều phi lý của cuộc sống—và của nghệ thuật. Nó làm sáng tỏ bản chất nhân văn phức tạp, sắc sảo của một huyền thoại người Mỹ thực sự và biểu tượng phản văn hóa—“người được vinh danh là người Mỹ thấp kém” (Time)—người đã ghi lại một cách kiên cường những người bị áp bức và đồi trụy của xã hội. Nó phơi bày một nghệ sĩ có nền tảng là bản năng, người có tác phẩm vang vọng lý tưởng trung tâm của mình: “Đừng cố gắng”.

Xuyên thấu, sâu sắc và thường hài hước, On Writing không chỉ chứa đầy những câu đáng nhớ mà còn chứa đựng sự cứng rắn đặc trưng của Bukowski, được tô điểm bằng những khoảnh khắc duyên dáng, bi thương và gần gũi.
