SynopsisOne of Charles Bukowski's best, this beer-soaked, deliciously degenerate novel follows the wanderings of aspiring writer Henry Chinaski across World War II-era America. Deferred from military service, Chinaski travels from city to city, moving listlessly from one odd job to another, always needing money but never badly enough to keep a job. His day-to-day existence spirals into an endless litany of pathetic whores, sordid rooms, dreary embraces, and drunken brawls, as he makes his bitter, brilliant way from one drink to the next. Charles Bukowski's posthumous legend continues to grow. Factotum is a masterfully vivid evocation of slow-paced, low-life urbanity and alcoholism, and an excellent introduction to the fictional world of Charles Bukowski., Charles Bukowski's posthumous legend continues to grow.

If you're going to read, go all the way. Otherwise don't even start.
Once you start page one, you'll quickly realize this book, like all of Bukowski's work, is made from anti-gravity materials. ..It's really hard to put down.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
