Bring Me Your Love is a 1983 short story by Charles Bukowski. The story itself is above average for Buk and far superior to There's No Business, which is offered by Black Sparrow Press in this same format. The R. Crumb art is very compatible with the tale. It's the story of a man visiting his wife in a mental institution and the conversations that follow. Typical Bukowski subject matter...madhouses, women, sex, booze & not much hope at all. If your shelves are already filled with the real Buk books, I would definitely recommend adding this to your collection. Keep in mind, we are talking about a fifteen page book here! There's not much tohold, hence the great price.

Heard of Bukowski? What's all the fuss about? you may ask. This little gem from Buk will give you a good intro into the world of Bukowski - booze, women, and mayhem!

If you like Bukowski, or Crumb, you gotta have this. The story is a typical Bukowski oddball love story, and the illustraions are like Crumb can see the mental pictures you get reading it. A great price too. I saw this one on e-bay going for like 15 bucks, people don't shop around I guess.

This short story is illustrated by R. Crumb. If you like this one, check out "There's no business like showbusiness" , which is also illustrated by the R. Crumb.

I liked it, its a very good Bukowsky type of story, however its juts like 5 pages long, and its way to expensive, and if u add postage, wow i payed way too much for 1 story! i wish i would have seen it at a library i would have just read it there in 5 minutes....

his fiction/short stories seem to run together and are a bit depressing to read and not in a good sense either. his poetry has such a different careless feel to it. but still a good read as far as writing goes so check it out.
