The Most Beautiful Woman in Town & Other Stories

Synopsis

Mad, immortal stories now surfaced from the literary underground. Charles bukowski's stories have addicted legions of american readers, even though the high literary establishment continues to ignore them. In europe, however (particularly in germany, italy, and france where he is published by the great publishing houses), he is critically recognized as one of america's greatest realist writers. In bukowski's trademark semi-autobiographical short prose style, he addresses recurrent themes such as los angeles bar culture, alcoholism, gambling, sex, and violence.
