Charles Bukowski - Post Office. Women. Waste paper. Gift book bound in leather.

Charles Bukowski is an American writer, poet, novelist and journalist of German origin. A representative of the so-called "dirty realism". He is the author of more than two hundred short stories included in sixteen collections, six novels and more than thirty poetry books.

Charles Bukowski (1920-1994) is a cult figure of American literature, whose work reflected an entire epoch. Author of more than forty books, including novels, poems, essays and short stories. Bukowski is a proponent of hyperrealism, the aesthetics of rude and even aggressive honesty. The power of his influence on American culture can only be compared with the worship of Hemingway. His work is extremely autobiographical, and the main character Henry Chinaski, in fact, is the alter ego of the writer. This unites the novels included in this collection: "Post Office", "Women", "Waste Paper", "Waste Paper" - the final novel by Bukowski. This is his fantastic parody of a detective story, smart and inventive, with traditional adventures on the day of life. The manner of writing and the very personality of the marginal Bukowski - an alcoholic and a brawler - can alienate someone... But under the assumed cynicism, passion for physiological details and obscene language, there is a gentle soul that is able to deeply feel and empathize with all of humanity.
