""It began as a mistake."" By middle age, Henry Chinaski has lost more than twelve years of his life to the U.S. Postal Service. In a world where his three true, bitter pleasures are women, booze, and racetrack betting, he somehow drags his hangover out of bed every dawn to lug waterlogged mailbags up mud-soaked mountains, outsmart vicious guard dogs, and pray to survive the day-to-day trials of sadistic bosses and certifiable coworkers. This classic 1971 novel—the one that catapulted its author to national fame—is the perfect introduction to the grimly hysterical world of legendary writer, poet, and Dirty Old Man Charles Bukowski and his fictional alter ego, Chinaski.

I really like this book, but I'm leaving a review for the fantastic reading by Christian Baskous. This is a case of the reader adding a lot to the book.

Mark Manson was right. I feel gross but that's exactly what Bulowski wanted. the story is well written and makes me feel how both shallow and deep he was in his lifetime.

well written

Christian Baskous is spot-on as a. Bukoski impersonator narrating this account of the author's life.
