The Last Night of the Earth Poems by Charles Bukowski is a 405-page softcover published by HarperCollins. Originally published in 1992, this copy is the first Ecco edition published in 2002. There is minor bumping to the head of the spine, a minor smudge to the cover and residual sticky tape residue from an old label on the back cover. Inside, the pages are clean and pristine except the last couple pages where the top edges are slightly dogeared with a small tear on page 385. The binding is tight with no loose pages. The condition is very good.

"it's as I have always
suspected: death
then
does have some
virtue."
