Paul Bowles

Post by mgunin »

Hello, let me ask another question please: I like Paul Bowles as a novelist, however, never managed to find any of his poems. Does anyone here have some poems in text format to be shown?

Thanks!

Excuse in advance my complete ignorance of Paul Bowles and my mania of playing with search engines, but maybe you could find more info on this web site (if this is about the "good" PB) :

Thank you. This is a great site, I've seen it before. However, there are no poems there. I guess there's only one way - to buy a book.

Hum... To buy a book or borrow a book, or receiving it as a gift I don't know other way of reading text, so excuse me if I did not understand on the firts reading what you meant - I'm very straight. I know that a network to exchange all sorts of things regarding Leonard Cohen is existing, here, so you may want to check with them if there is one or more Bowles admirer as well among them.

Oh! I forgot the net :

There must be more "out there".

Well, I only meant that there seems to be no collections of Bowles poetry online (like, for example, online archives of Shakespeare, Frost, Eliot) and the only way to read his poetry for me in this case is to buy a book in some online store (in my hometown, it's hardly available at any library). Hope that's more clear.

Oh, thanks a lot. This is a very good finding.

I have nothing against trading, you know. Nothing at all. It is an efficient system when or where the more usefull (generally) money-system is failing totally sometimes.

Well! Great that you came back to see this. :D
