Low life writer and alcoholic Henry Chinaski was born to survive. Now, at
the age of fifty, he is living the life of a rock star, running three
hundred hangovers a year and a sex life that would cripple Casanova. Women
is a riotous and uncompromisingly vivid account of life on the edge. Women
follows Charles Bukowski's classic bestsellers Post Office and Factotum.
Bukowski's Beat Generation writing reflects his slum upbringing, his
succession of menial jobs and his experience of low life urban America. He
died in 1994 and is widely acknowledged as one of the most distinctive
writers of the last fifty years.
