Presented here is the 112th installment of The Wormwood Review, the legendary literary journal edited by Marvine Malone (1930-1996). This issue features some really tasty contributors—the highlight being Charles Bukowski (1920-1994) with his poems “A Sad Poem” and “Good Morning, How Are You?”. Another highlight is Peter Morris’ “Pirates Cry” which is a piece consisting of five poems, including the titular “Pirates Cry”. Chapbook-format journal in stapled wrappers, one of an edition of 700 hand-numbered copies of which this is No. 245/700 as stated at colophon: “The edition of this issue has been limited to 700 numbered copies, the first 70 being signed by Peter Morris. The copy now in your hand is number: 245” (pg. 136). Another rich & scarce issue in this most-collectible series, of particular importance to the Bukowski devotee with its exemplars of Buk's very late works.
