Katz in fact did write the review, the results of which Bukowski credited with helping him to become a full-time writer. This copy has great provenance - being Bill Katz's copy, with facsimiles of two pre-publication letters from publisher John Martin to Katz (from December 1970 and January 1971), discussing Katz's prior pivotal review of 'The Days Run Away.' in Library Journal, which Martin credited for making the sale of the book, and discussing sending proofs of 'Post Office' to Katz, hoping for another Library Journal review. Copy #16 of 250 numbered hardcover copies signed by Charles Bukowski. ![]()
