Notes of a Dirty Old Man: Charles Bukowski Paperback – Import, 10 Jan. 2008

Bukowski will always offer an insight into what means to be a bum. A real one. From the way he writes to the crudeness of the scenes his attitude made me question everything I think I knew about what it means to be happy. Bukowski will always manage to give you a good awakening intellectual electrical shock.Don't forget that for this price you won't be getting a pretty looking format either - although that cheap formatting makes it even more Bukowski...

I read most of his books in my late teens early 20ies and bought this for a friend's 30th birthday,i could not resist the temptation and re read it before wrapping it away.it was good to remember how graphic,abrupt and realistic to the point of disgust his books were.a great read by one of the best dirty old men around.

I love Hank. I love his style, I love his sense of humour. Notes of a Dirty Old Man is a collection that probably shouldn't be coupled together but in doing so you almost create a conversational style of writing that allows you to get to know the man a little better than before.

I ordered the book on line and it arrived 3 days later. It was well packagedf and un damaged. The book was a gift to my son and he has told me that he is very happy with it

If you like Bukowski's style of writing this will not disappoint: self-loathing and humour throughout, with well observed comments on individuals he meets.

Some interesting pieces by bukowski, a bit everywhere but nevertheless; bukowski. Inserts from his life, poetry, narratives from Chinaski. A great insight to the new and old fans alike

More from the bottle-swigging bard, A great variety of his columns.

Haven't had the chance to read all these purchases yet - but exactly what I wanted. Thanks!
