Descriere magazin:
A compilation of
Charles Bukowski\'s underground articles from his column
Notes of a
Dirty Old Man appears here in book form.
Bukowski\'s reasoning for self-describing himself as a \'dirty old man\' rings true in this book. People come to my door--too many of them really--and knock to tell me
Notes of a
Dirty Old Man turns them on. A bum off the road brings in a gypsy and his wife and we talk . . . . drink half the night. A long distance operator from Newburgh, N.Y. sends me money. She wants me to give up drinking beer and to eat well. I hear from a madman who calls himself \'King Arthur\' and lives on Vine Street in Hollywood and wants to help me write my column. A doctor comes to my door: \'I read your column and think I can help you. I used to be a psychiatrist.\' I send him away . . .
Bukowski writes like a latter-day Celine, a wise fool talking straight from the gut about the futility and beauty of life . . . -- Publishers Weekly These disjointed stories gives us a glimpse into the brilliant and highly disturbed mind of a man who will drink anything, hump anything and say anything without the slightest tinge of embarassment, shame or remorse. It\'s actually pretty hard not to like the guy after reading a few of these semi-ranting short stories. --Greg Davidson, curiculummag.com
