It makes for a very good intro to Bukowski's prose since it bares the hallmarks and stylistic traits (good and bad) that appear in all his other novels and it's short enough to read in an evening, so if you end up finding Bukowski unpalatable you'll only have wasted a couple hours.

So yeah, start here and then read Hollywood, his second to last and best novel.(less)
