A review by foxclouds
Absence of the Hero, by Charles Bukowski

2.0

I struggled with this book. I loved Volume 1, but this one turned out to be a way more messy, confusing, and gory. Lets just say that I found it rather difficult to stomach some of the themes of the stories. I read only half of them and skimmed some others, but after having it around for 3 weeks, I realized that I am not going to finish it.

So here we go. Wish I could say I loved it as much as I did Volume 1, but alas.
