5Garras del paraíso, de la colección «Poesía portátil , es el reflejo poético de una existencia vivida al límite. Charles Bukowski hunde su lírica en las drogas, el sexo y el realismo sucio de las clases más oprimidas, una desolación que siempre buscó la belleza.

Escritor de culto en toda Europa, Charles Bukowski usó la poesía para describir la depravación de la vida urbana y retratar a las clases más oprimidas de la sociedad norteamericana.

Autor prolífico e icono del realismo sucio, combinó emoción e imaginación con un lenguaje directo y repleto de imágenes violentas y sexuales. Transgresores, sus poemas son el reflejo de su personalidad intensa, resultado de una existencia vivida al límite. Nacido el 1920 en Andernach (Alemania), hijo de un soldado norteamericano y una costurera alemana, Bukowski se trasladó a Los Ángeles junto a su familia siendo todavía un niño. Narrador y poeta, sus textos son casi siempre autobiográficos -protagonizados por él mismo o por su alter ego, Henry Chinasky- y se ocupan del lado más salvaje de la vida con un lenguaje agresivo y descarnado. Bukowski publicó más de cuarenta libros entre recopilaciones de relatos, poemarios y novelas, y falleció en San Pedro, California, en 1994.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

From the Poesía portátil /Portable Poetry collection, this is Charles Bukowski's poetic image of living on the edge. Bukowski sinks his lyrics into drugs, sex, and dirty realism of the most oppressed; a misery that was always in search of beauty.

A cult writer throughout Europe, Charles Bukowski used poetry to describe a corrupt and deviant urban life and shed light on the most oppressed social classes in American society. A creative writer and dirty realism icon, he combined emotion and imagination with a direct language describing violent and sexual images. His poems are a reflection of his intense personality, the result of a life lived on the edge.

Born in 1920 in Andernach, Germany, son of an American soldier and a German seamstress, Bukowski moved to Los Angeles with his family as a child. A prose and poetry writer, his texts are almost always autobiographical - starring himself or his alter ego Henry Chinasky - and they most often fall on the wildest side of life with an aggressive and brutal language. Bukowski published more than forty books including collections of stories, poems, and novels. He died in San Pedro, California in 1994.
