About this title

From the Publisher:

In The Movie: "Barfly," Bukowski crawls onto the silver screen like some rough beast slouching toward Hollywood to be born--in all its living color, blood and neon shot through a haze of flophouse cigarette smoke, beer glass amber and L.A. smog.

About the Author:

Charles Bukowski is one of America's best-known contemporary writers of poetry and prose and, many would claim, its most influential and imitated poet. He was born in 1920 in Andernach, Germany, to an American soldier father and a German mother, and brought to the United States at the age of two. He was raised in Los Angeles and lived there for over fifty years. He died in San Pedro, California on March 9, 1994, at the age of seventy-three, shortly after completing his last novel, Pulp.
