Título: Women

Año de publicación: 1978

Low-life writer and unrepentat alcoholic Henry Chinaski was born to survive. After decades of slacking off a low-paying dead-end jobs, blowing his cash on booze and women, and scrimping by in flea-bitten apartments, Chinaski sees his poetic star rising at least. Now, at fifty, he is reveling in his sudden rock-star life, runnig three hundred hangovers a year, and maintaining a sex life that would cripple Casanova. 

With all of Bukowski's trademark humor and gritty, dark honesty, this 1978 follow-up tio Post office and Factotum is an uncompromising account of life on the edge.

Bukoski ha dicho que todas sus novelas son autobiográficas, usando como alter-ego el nombre de Henry Chinaski. En esta novela relata su vida a los 50 años, cuando su carrera empieza a despegar, luego de publicar su novela Post Office (Cartero en la versión en castellano).
