Deferred from military service, Chinaski travels from city to city, moving listlessly from one odd job to another, always needing money but never badly enough to keep a job. His day-to-day existence spirals into an endless litany of pathetic whores, sordid rooms, dreary embraces, and drunken brawls, as he makes his bitter, brilliant way from one drink to the next.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDETAILS\u003c\/strong\u003e • Author: Bukowski, Charles • Publisher: Ecco Press • Format: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cedar Leaf Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45600795328556,"sku":"9780876852637","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0697\/2234\/1420\/files\/9780876852637.jpg?v=1780590372","url":"https:\/\/cedarleafbooks.com\/products\/factotum","provider":"Cedar Leaf Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
