Post Office by Charles Bukowski (1980, Paperback)

Charles Bukowski isn't for everyone, that's pretty much universally agreed upon. Post Office is a good novel to start with, it can be read easily in a few nights and if you like the style Bukowski has more novels, short stories, and poems to keep you going for a long time. Some think he's a womanizing drunk, to some he's a deadbeat lazy bum, myself I think of the man as genius. "Factotum" is another good novel, as is "Women". All of Bukowski's works are for mature audiences, definitely not for impressionable teenagers. I give this novel my highest rating, 5 stars!
