Bukowski. What should I read first?
Try a good writer

Is he not a good writer?

No, just listen to ICP instead

He gives you his overused dark humoristic criticism of middle class life and his books are full of dirty jokes, womanising, and alcohol, but you won't find much more more to him, he's superfluous and boring.

My dad loved Post Office, mostly 'cause he related to it pretty well since he was a mailman for 38 years. He was pretty insistent for me to buy the book and read it and so I did. Haven't read it yet but I will in the next few days

Seconding this. Although most of his novels are pretty much the same, I found Women the best. I also loved Pulp which is pure fiction as opposed with the rest, but his humour mixed with hard boiled detective stuff blew me away.
