The sequel to Ham On Rye, lifestory-wise. But actually written seven years earlier.

My review in 50 words or less...
Hank Chinaski staggers from city-to-city and job-to-job, staying drunk and broke throughout, but never getting anywhere. He finds a woman (several actually), but not happiness. A vivid look at Skid Row. A (relatively) early effort by Bukowski, and it shows.
