Charles Bukowski - Pulp
In Los Angeles runs a strange rumor. It is said that a certain Céline, who prowls the competition inspecting libraries and seeking first editions of Faulkner, it would be nothing more and nothing less than Louis Ferdinand, who had not died in 1961 in Meudon. Nick Belano, a little intellectual detective, is charged with finding out the truth. Who wants to know it? A lady very fatal, perhaps the most fatal of all, you do not agree that Celine could have escaped his deadly charm. But suddenly the work season has become too good for Nick and has several more issues at hand: find the Red Sparrow is not the grandson of the Maltese Falcon for a John Barton, and find out if Cindy, the wife of Jack Bass, cheating on her husband. But, as I dutifully showed Raymond Chandler, all cases of a detective always bundled together, and between Cindy and Celine will organize a considerable mess. "Pulp" Bukowski's last novel is a parody and a tribute to all the "pulp fictions" which on paper have been, and real, literary and bleeding "pulp fiction" in its own right, drawing on the tragedy and humor, literature and keys to the most pure and harsh reality, to the real and surreal.
"Pulp" (Anagram) was the last novel written by Charles Bukowski, and it's just fun as a parody of pulp novels referred to from the title. He dedicated the book to the bad writers, those of which we have all been used once without waiting for his part nothing more than a little entertainment. And that's "Pulp", a novel that sets aside any attempt to tell a black genre intrigues the most insane.
Bukowski's latest novel. Highly recommended. It is a tribute to the pulp, with much humor, but with a touch of bitterness that is always Bukowski literature.
