Sinópsis
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
