Description

Henry Chinaski siempre ha estado en pie de guerra, sin bajar la guardia contra el «establishment» y sus infinitos tentĂĄculos. Pero en Hollywood no le serĂĄ nada fĂĄcil: John Pinchot, un enloquecido director de cine, se empeña en llevar a la pantalla sus relatos de juventud, o sea la autobiografĂ­a de un alcohĂłlico empedernido.Bukowski cuenta en este libro las experiencias de su ĂĄlter ego Chinaski durante la filmaciĂłn de la pelĂ­cula Barfly, dirigida por Barbet Schroeder e interpretada por Mickey Rourke y Faye Dunaway. Una visiĂłn sarcĂĄstica, ĂĄcida y corrosiva de los entretelones de Hollywood en la que desfilan personajes curiosos y excĂ©ntricos: productores, escritorzuelos, artistas de todo lo imaginable, ejecutivos fantasma, periodistas... Un mundo duro donde todo gira al compĂĄs del sacrosanto dĂłlar, que es paradĂłjicamente, el Ășnico medio para realizar lo sueños mĂĄs subversivos y las empresas mĂĄs enloquecidas.«Una narrativa tremendamente veloz, que te atrapa aunque no quieras» (RamĂłn de España, El PaĂ­s).«Un verdadero genio en su tratamiento irĂłnico de la sociedad. Absolutamente nada escapa a su sarcasmo» (JosĂ© Antonio Gurpegui, Abc).«Su mejor pieza» (FĂ©lix Romeo Pescador, Diario 16).
