    Buying books from amazon

    I'm a poor man with little means of getting cash. I have a paypal account and wanted to know if anyone could suggest a book to read that might help me keep my sanity in check? Starting point in the years of published books??

    If you are looking to buy books, I have some paperbacks (later printings) that I will sell for a low price. Some of the great earlier books like

    Burning in Water, Drowning in Flame
    You Get So Alone....
    Roominghouse Madrigals.

    Most of these are OK, but not collectible copies. Also, you would want to have them sent to you by media mail to avoid the high shipping. Still, you could get two books from me for the same price as you could get one from Amazon....

    That's a nice offer, Bill!
    " Now let's get this straight for once and for all; Bukowski is the best. Forget your dreary school books, your Shakespeare and Milton and Wordsworth. Never mind Hemingway, Faulkner, F.Scott. Anyone with half a brain, a love of literature and an exposure to Bukowski's works out to see that it's true. The rest of them, the doubters and hesitaters, don't matter: they're blind idiots, deaf fools."

    I'm especially with your recommendation with regards to 'You Get So Alone..' and Amazon also sells used books in great condition (if you shop carefully).
