A Book I’ve Enjoyed Reading

Hello, today I'm going to talk about one of my favorite books, called "factotum" is the second book of three autobiographical books by Charles Bukowski, which is published in 1975. The first is Post Office and the third is Women.

I like it a lot because it is very crude to tell the reality, and talks about how routine work is and how he loses each one and the stories and things that happen to him.

This book is about his alter ego named Henry, who is an alcoholic and unemployed and was rejected to go to World War II, he looks for a job that does not stand between him and the writing, and begins a great journey of a job to another of which he is dismissed or resigned because he is bored, as this happens he knows and stays in different places and goes to meet different people and women with whom he is related, in addition to having different problems. They are produced by the lack of money and also because he is an alcoholic and spends a lot of time in bars and canteens, in which different stories of society and how they lived in those times are related.

Charles Butoski is one of my favorite authors. I hope that some of you will read some of his books sometime.
