How the hell do you sum up this collection of short stories?
Abuse
Alcoholism
Addiction
Rape
Paedophilia
Necrophilia
Poverty
Gambling
Poverty
Disability
All wrapped up in Bukowski's signature cynicism.
It's like reading a fair less glamourised version of Sin City and yet it's honesty is laid bare. A tough read, but one that makes you take a look at yourself and the world around you.
