Bukowski, Charles.

Pulp. A Novel.

Santa Rosa: Black Sparrow Press, 1994. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine tight copy in illustrated hardcover binding. Pulp was Bukowski's last published novel released just prior to his death. Pulp is a convoluted detective story about a hard-boiled private eye who solves his cases by waiting them out, Pulp evokes Raymond Chandler, an author who lived in Los Angeles and set stories there, as did Bukowski. The novel also bears similarity to some works by Dashiell Hammett. Pulp is a farewell to Buk's readers, as a gesture of rapprochement with death, and serves as Bukowski's sendup and send-off of himself. Item #28548
