A better idea is to match individual works of literature against pieces of music.


Herman Melville, Moby Dick -----> Beethoven, "Hammerklavier" Sonata, Op.106

Raymond Carver, What We Talk About When We Talk About Love -----> Lennon/McCartney, A Day In The Life

P.G.Wodehouse, Right Ho, Jeeves! -----> W.A.Mozart, Clarinet Concerto K.622

Nah, early Tom Waits is a mix of Kerouac and Bukowski

The 80ties Tom Waits is best compared to The early Modernists (e.g. expresionists, surrealists and dadaists) or maybe Burroughs (With whom he collaborated)

>>10818536

>Bukowski = Brahms

What the fuck. Brahms was deeply formalist and entrenched in his tradition, he wasn't an iconoclast like Bukowski. In classical terms, Bukowski would more likely be Debussy or maybe Satie, but I wouldn't give him the honor of being compared to either of them

>Goethe = Schubert

I can see how you would compare their work in hindsight, but really, their careers, their aims and their reception are very different. Goethe is Mozart

Bukowski was deeply formalist too, in his own fucked up way, sure, BUT, everything he knew about composition and how to build up tension and expectations, play around with themes, then deliver a punch line, especially in his poetry, he learned it from Brahms, and he admitted to that, several times.
