Thinking about author John Fante, who was born #OTD in 1909. #johnfante
Happy Birthday to the singular, John Fante.
I thank the stars for Bukowski resurrecting the career of John Fante. If it wasn't for Buk & Black Sparrow, Fante's work might've vanished

M'he enquadernat plegats, tapa dura, pell, llom corbat, daurats... els quatre volums de la tetralogia Bandini de #JohnFante per rellegir-los, 30 anys després...
In questo romanzo , John Fante dipinge la vita dura di Svevo e Arturo Bandini: tra povertà, alcolismo e aspirazioni, l’attesa della primavera diventa simbolo di rinascita. 🌱 #consigliletterari #johnfante

Couverture de l’édition de poche chez 10/18 de Mon chien Stupide de John Fante
512 Ask the Dust
Depression era story of a writer who falls in love with the brassy waitress who won't give him the time of day. Poetic and depressing, a decent tale well told.

John Fante (1909-1983), “The Big Hunger”
‘Dan Crane was a hard man, as hard as they come. He’d as soon kill you as look at you. But like all hard men, he had his weakness – the sloe-eyed temptress, Vicky’

Arturo Bandini missed the boat to America and so didn’t become a stonemason in Denver or a scriptwriter in LA. Instead, he hitched a ride north from Abruzzo, got dropped off in Tuscany and made his fortune baking bread and making cakes. #JohnFante

Was twenty then
What the hell
I used to say
take your time, Bandini
You got ten years to write a book, so take it easy
get out and learn about life walk the streets
That's your trouble
your ignorance of life..📖

"Tan importante como Chandler en la construcción literaria de Los Ángeles. Es imposible imaginarse las novelas de Bukowski o los álbumes de la década del setenta de Tom Waits sin el camino que él abrió..."
El 8 de abril de 1909 nace John Thomas Fante #JohnFante

John Fante'yi okurken Bukoswki’yi ısrarla söylemek gerekir.Çünkü Fante ve Bandini ne denli birlikte yola çıkmışlarsa da,onların kollarına bir kütüphanede Bukoswki girmiştir.Bukoswki ortada,Bandini solda, Fante sağdadır.

« Maman aimait mourir. Une ou deux fois l'an, surtout vers Noël, les télégrammes arrivaient pour nous annoncer qu'une fois encore, maman mourait. »

Geweldig boek, prachtig geschreven. Al uit 1952,maar dat is geen enkel bezwaar. Liefde, ruzie, humor, familie.
Gewoon heel mooi. #boeken #lezen #uitgeverijoevers #johnfante
