Bukowski wrote Post Office here


LAist informs that the apartment where Charles Bukowski wrote Post Office and so many other works is for sale and may be demolished.

It's here at age 50 that he got his break. New publisher, John Martin, liked Bukowski's writing and promised him his post office wages for the rest of his life if he would quit his job and write full-time for Martin's Black Sparrow Press.
