Charles Bukowski is one of the greatest American writers of the twentieth century, author of more than forty books, including novels, poems, essays, and short stories. Despite the sometimes shocking naturalism, his texts are full of lyricism, even a kind of sentimentality.
The novel "Women" written by him on the wave of popularity and contains a lot of signature "chips" Bukowski: self-irony, an abundance of sex scenes, the dynamics of the plot. The hero of the book is 50 years old, his name is Henry Chinaski, and he is the constant alter ego of the author. The novel is a series of more than frank sex scenes, which are united by the main thing - the hero's endless love for his women, admiring them and rude and sincere admiration.
Rebel and romantic, unwilling to fit into any framework, despising any rules - such an image arises in everyone who reads the books of Charles Bukowski.
Those who hear music in his deliberately brutal prose and poetry, see poetry behind the mask of a cynic and profanity-speaker, will love him forever.
Bukowski, however, did not seem to care whether he would be heard. He went his own way, despising refined people and refined, emasculated art.
"While men are watching soccer, or drinking beer, or hanging around bowling alleys, they, these women, are thinking about us, focusing on us, studying us, deciding whether to accept us, throw us away, trade us, kill us, or just throw us away."
