A perfect read if you want to feel hateful
I understand Bukowski writes to be disliked but I still cannot find the appeal of his vulgar, low-level style.
Nothing happens (beside drugs, rape, Chinaski being an awful person) and you will not be able to find a deeper meaning.
Easy to read, fascinating but incredibly horrible at the same time.
