IMDB books board discussion

i recently reread POST OFFICE. i had read it a long time ago but enjoyed it immensely during the reread.

any other fans of bukowski's writing style and themes?

He always told it like he saw it. His it-makes-no-sense perspective on life combined with his years of drinking alone begat a fearless writer whose prolific work eventually brought him some fame and comfort.

I read Tales of Ordinary Madness and Hot Water Music 15 years ago or so after receiving them both as gifts. I recall liking them; but finding the ground he covered to be fairly redundant. And I haven't sought out anything by him since. .

I still have both books and may give them another try as neither is terribly fresh to me anymore.
