6/27/2023 0 Comments Play the Piano Drunk Like a Percussion Instrument Until the F... by Charles BukowskiWhile Bukowski’s punctuation was quite accurate, his spelling was whimsical at best, and he admitted as much. To further preserve Bukowski’s peculiar letter writing, editorial changes have been kept to a minimum. However, some distinctive letters have been reprinted in facsimile so that they can be appreciated as intended by Bukowski. Similarly, all the 1945–1954 correspondence was handwritten-coincidentally enough, it was Bukowski’s infamous ten-year drunk, when he misleadingly said he didn’t write at all, as if all the handwritten material was forgettable-and it cannot be properly reproduced here. It’s virtually impossible to faithfully reproduce Bukowski’s letters as a large number of them were profusely decorated with drawings and doodles.
