Synopsis "Post Office (in English)"

"It began as a mistake." By middle age, Henry Chinaski has lost more than twelve years of his life to the U.S. Postal Service. In a world where his three true, bitter pleasures are women, booze, and racetrack betting, he somehow drags his hangover out of bed every dawn to lug waterlogged mailbags up mud-soaked mountains, outsmart vicious guard dogs, and pray to survive the day-to-day trials of sadistic bosses and certifiable coworkers. This classic 1971 novel--the one that catapulted its author to national fame--is the perfect introduction to the grimly hysterical world of legendary writer, poet, and Dirty Old Man Charles Bukowski and his fictional alter ego, Chinaski.

Heinrich Karl Bukowski (Andernach, Alemania, 16 de agosto de 1920-San Pedro, Los Ángeles, 9 de marzo de 1994), conocido como (Henry) Charles Bukowski, fue un escritor de relatos, novelista y poeta estadounidense nacido en Alemania, representante del realismo sucio y considerado como un «poeta maldito», debido a su excesivo alcoholismo, pobreza y bohemia.

La obra literaria de Bukowski está fuertemente influida por la atmósfera de la ciudad de Los Ángeles, donde pasó la mayor parte de su vida. Hoy en día es considerado uno de los escritores más influyentes de la literatura estadounidense y uno de los símbolos del «realismo sucio» y de la literatura independiente.

Bukowski escribió libros de diversos géneros, tales como: diarios, relatos, novelas, poesías, ensayos e incluso llegó a escribir Barfly, un guion cinematográfico basado en su alter ego Henry Chinaski, dirigida por el cineasta francés Barbet Schroeder, película en donde realizó un cameo en un bar. Esta experiencia la recopiló en un libro de relatos, Hollywood (1989).
