⭐️⭐️⭐️ Sex, alcohol, poetry, gambling. Standard Bukowski, though he was anything but standard. Hot Water Music is a crude underbelly journey of 30+ debauched vignettes. I was very pleased to see Henry Chinaski again. If you‘ve never read Bukowski, probably don‘t start here. If you‘re easily offended, probably don‘t read Bukowski. I don‘t love everything I‘ve read by him, but I appreciate his boldness and straightforward writing. 👇🏻
