I have read most of Leo’s work, and found the beauty in this very earthy writings. He really represented that heavy drinking, wild living image of American writers–ie; Hemingway, Steinbeck, etc. I should have you help me write a story about my favorite author-Ken Kesey. From your Furry Freak Bros

One of the funniest books I ever read was “Ham on Rye.” Bukowski was a genius and one of my anti-heroes. There is a really good documentary on him, though I forget the name. He is driving around with the film-maker in his old VW Beetle and pointing out places where he worked, such as the old post office. The film would be incomplete without a drunken and disorderly Bukowski upsetting a scene or two. He does manage to smack his wife and give a rambling poetry reading after draining two bottles of wine.
