Title: Good, but there are better Bukowski books out there
Product review: I like this novel, but certain passages I felt like I read in other novels by Bukowski. It's a pleasure to read, but not as smooth as some of his other works. He basically goes from job to job, occasionally having a fling, getting drunk, or going to the track. If you're a Bukowski fan, buy this book only after you've read Post Office (dealing with a terrible job), Ham on Rye (childhood through adolescent), and Women (sex). Certain passages make this a must read - but other Bukowski books are better.
