Description

The Captain is Out to Lunch and the Sailors Have Taken Over the Ship is a semi-autobiographical work by Charles Bukowski, featuring diary entries written in the final years of his life. Accompanied by illustrations from artist Robert Crumb, the book offers raw insights into Bukowski’s thoughts on aging, fame, writing, and his daily routines.

Published in 1998, it captures the unvarnished essence of Bukowski’s humor, cynicism, and reflective musings. The book reveals a more contemplative side of the poet, balancing his characteristic grit with introspection, making it a compelling read for fans of his unorthodox and deeply human storytelling.

One of my favorite, all-time collaborations. And a great book to boot!
