Chuck was a good friend and I miss him. Glad you showed this piece, he needs to be read by everyone.

So glad you mentioned him and posted this. We need more men out there, like that. Even if it seems useless, it isn't.

Thank You! Appreciate you reading this.... He was such a great writer, a neglected writer, that needs more attention in the world we live in. Thank you.

Yes, there are so many out there. Need help to keep the lights on. I'll have to make my own list of these writers - Hamill, my beloved Hrabal, Rexroth, Purdy, Bissett, Grossman, Mallarme, Singer, Klima ... I could go on and on ... So many surrealists from Breton and before.

This is the second time in a week I’ve read something about Bowden. Time to dive into his work.
