Ask the Dust by John Fante

5.0

Superb. This book is amazing and I understand as to why Bukowksi had felt how he did when he first read this. This book is so solid and well made. I love these kinds of books and while Arturo isn't the best of people, his intentions are usually good. The romance in this book is so toxic but there are really nice heartwarming moments. I relate a lot to Arturo and I feel as though this would be how I'd be had I not have wanted to change for the better; a 'What If' story. I love this book.
