Eleanor’s review of Ask the Dust (The Saga of Arturo Bandini, #3) > Likes and Comments

Everything you said is so very true. Fante should be as famous as Bukowski.

There's a fine biography of Fante---Stephen Cooper's FULL OF LIFE. At 400 pages, it's a thorough overview of an underappreciated author.

Yes, writing stripped down to the bones and sinews.

Bukowski’s is he led me to Fante. Perhaps his greatest gift!
