<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Originally published: Santa Barbara, CA: Black Sparrow Press, c1983.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>With his characteristic raw and minimalist style, Charles Bukowski takes us on a walk through his side of town in <em>Hot Water Music</em>. He gives us little vignettes of depravity and lasciviousness, bite sized pieces of what is both beautiful and grotesque.</strong></p><p>The stories in <em>Hot Water Music</em> dash around the worst parts of town - a motel room stinking of sick, a decrepit apartment housing a perpetually arguing couple, a bar tended by a skeleton - and depict the darkest parts of human existence. Bukowski talks simply and profoundly about the underbelly of the working class without raising judgement. </p><p>In the way he writes about sex, relationships, writing, and inebriation, Bukowski sets the bar for irreverent art - his work inhabits the basest part of the mind and the most extreme absurdity of the everyday. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><p><em>Hot Water Music</em> is a collection of short stories by Charles Bukowski, published in 1983. The collection deals largely with: drinking, women, gambling, and writing. It is an important collection that establishes Bukowski's minimalist style and his thematic oeuvre.</p>
