Hollywood

Charles Bukowski

Black Sparrow Press 1989

Only Bukowski could write a book, then the screenplay for that book, then a book about writing the screenplay for the book. That's Hollywood, wherein he recounts the bizarrities and oddessness of America's capital of dysfunctional glam.

Basically, like all Buk's books, it's a heckuva read with lots of great lines that are so elegant in their simplicity that it just makes you say, "Why didn't I think of that?"
