I PASSED the test, but afterwards I thought, how can a man test a woman's fidelity? It seemed unfair.

With the mini-skirt she wore long stockings, a garter belt, and she had on pink panties under the red skirt. She even wore high heeled shoes.
"You're looking at her, aren't you?" asked Dee Dee.
"I can't stop."
"She's a slut."
"Sure."
The slut got up and played pinball, wiggling her behind to help the balls fall in. Then she sat back down, showing more than ever.

I watched her behind wiggle as she worked at the door. I thought about Nietzsche. There we were: a German stallion and a Jewish mare. The Fatherland would adore me.

Fantastisk bok så langt. Karakteren (Bukowskis alter ego) dedikerer, rendyrker og hengir seg til en "anti-livsstil". Han hater trender og selvbevisste, kloke folk. Derimot liker han ærlige folk, damer, alkohol, virkelighetsflukt og sex, sex, sex. Og det er ikke pretensiøst overhodet, men noe menneskelig, tragisk og verdig med det hele. Å skrive det vi alle tenker, men ikke sier høyt. Og så le av oss selv etterpå.

Eh

I think Henry just needs rehab
