The books here show Charles Bukowski's skill as a great short story writer, one who is a harsh portraitist of the urban underworld. With a cocktail of syncopated, visceral writing, black humour, uninhibited sex, and lots of alcohol, he outlines a sort of map of Los Angeles by painting its urban myths. / Los tres libros de relatos aquí reunidos son los que consolidaron a Charles Bukowski como el gran cronista de la otra cara del sueño americano, como un retratista implacable del submundo urbano. Agitando en un cóctel infalible una prosa sincopada y visceral, humor negro, sexo desmelenado y litros de alcohol, el autor traza en estas historias una suerte de mapa fragmentario de los barrios marginales de Los Angeles y contribuye a convertir la ciudad en un mito literario, como antes hizo Raymond Chandler. En los relatos aquí recopilados encontramos algunos de los mejores momentos de este vitriólico paseante por el bulevar de los sueños rotos y por el lado salvaje de la vida. Encontramos también seres a la deriva, perdedores, desarraigados, ilusos y soñadores que ahogan sus penas en whisky, personajes a los que Bukowski convierte en protagonistas de una comedia humana de los bajos fondos, salvaje, sórdida, a ratos vitalista y a veces desternillante.
