Ask The Dust

Partly first edition: Charles Bukowski’s preface appears here for the first time. It was at Bukowski’s insistence that his publisher, John Martin, agreed to reissue this novel, first published in 1939 and long out of print.

One of 250 numbered copies signed by the author.

Publisher’s black quarter cloth, printed paper boards, label lettered lengthwise with author and title pasted on spine, original transparent dust jacket preserved.

Boards lightly yellowed at margins and very slightly soiled, otherwise a fine copy.
