Product Description
Lowlife writer and unrepentant alcoholic Henry Chinaski was born to survive. After decades of slacking off at lowpaying deadend jobs blowing his cash on booze and women and scrimping by in fleabitten apartments Chinaski sees his poetic star rising at last. Now at fifty he is reveling in his sudden rockstar life running three hundred hangovers a year and maintaining a sex life that would cripple Casanova. With all of Bukowskis trademark humor and gritty dark honesty this 1978 followup to Post Office and Factotum is an uncompromising account of life on the edge.
