Charles Bukowski

Opis

Legendary barfly Charles Bukowski follows the path of his alter ego Henry Chinaski as he meanders his way through America drifting from one dead-end job to another, from one woman to another and from one bottle to the next. His downward spiral is peppered with black humour.

O autorze

During his lifetime Bukowski published more than forty-five books of poetry and prose including the novels Post Office (1971) and Factotum (1975). He is one of America's most distinctive writers and a voice for both the outsider and low life Americana.
