Narrative Toward Books Hollywood

Henry Chinaski siempre ha estado en pie de guerra, sin bajar la guardia contra el «establishment» y sus infinitos tentáculos. Pero en Hollywood no le será nada fácil: John Pinchot, un enloquecido director de cine, se empeña en llevar a la pantalla sus relatos de juventud, o sea la autobiografía de un alcohólico empedernido. Bukowski cuenta en este libro las experiencias de su álter ego Chinaski durante la filmación de la película Barfly, dirigida por Barbet Schroeder e interpretada por Mickey Rourke y Faye Dunaway. Una visión sarcástica, ácida y corrosiva de los entretelones de Hollywood en la que desfilan personajes curiosos y excéntricos: productores, escritorzuelos, artistas de todo lo imaginable, ejecutivos fantasma, periodistas... Un mundo duro donde todo gira al compás del sacrosanto dólar, que es paradójicamente, el único medio para realizar lo sueños más subversivos y las empresas más enloquecidas. «Una narrativa tremendamente veloz, que te atrapa aunque no quieras» (Ramón de España, El País). «Un verdadero genio en su tratamiento irónico de la sociedad. Absolutamente nada escapa a su sarcasmo» (José Antonio Gurpegui, Abc). «Su mejor pieza» (Félix Romeo Pescador, Diario 16).

Criticism Containing Books Hollywood

I finished listening to Ham on Rye by Bukowski and just jumped right into this one, a later one and not so great, but still pretty hilarious at times about his experience with Hollywood in the writing of the screenplay for and the making of Barfly:What will you do?""Oh, hell, I'll write a novel about writing the screenplay and making the movie.""What are you going to call it?""Hollywood.""Hollywood?""Yes. . ."The working class Bukowski almost predictably skewers pretentious Hollywood types ala



Probably the best I can say about Bukowski is that you get what you expect. That's both praise and diminution. The art of his books is that they can inject his ego directly into your mind. When he's thrilled, your thrilled. When he's disgusted, so are you. The salvation of Hollywood is that most of the time he's bemused and curious. As plans go awry and the world upends, he's playing with a cat---"The cat liked to chase this piece of string." Of course, that's the extent of it all. There's no

"I hate those people, they are so phony" then we had a drink, "I hate those people, they are so phony" then we had a drink, "I hate those people, they are so phony" then we had a drink, "I hate those people, they are so phony" then we had a drink, "I hate those people, they are so phony" then we had a drink. -That about sums up the book.

3,5*"The poem has some value, believe me. It keeps you from going totally mad.""Writing was never work for me. It had been the same for as long as I could remember: turn on the radio to a classical music station, light a cigarette or a cigar, open the bottle. The typer did the rest. All I had to do was be there. The whole process allowed me to continue when life itself offered very little, when life itself was a horror show. There was always the typer to soothe me, to talk to me, to entertain

Well, I finished Hollywood (1989) by Charles Bukowski yesterday! And, let me be up front about something: I am a HUGE FAN of Bukowski!! This novel is a Roman à clef since its inspired in real people and real events. In Hollywood, Bukowski fictionalizes his experiences as the screenwriter of the movie Barfly. I must admit I find the idea of writing a book about a moment where you were writing a screenplay about your books really cool!! Only Bukowski could think of such a thing! It was funny to

Hollywood .. Hollywood .. People, streets and hustle, Hollywood .. Hollywood city / movie, eyes that know sleep in the morning. This is a city that must be seen on television and says: I was here and I know this street.رغم جمال السرد إلا أن هذا النص لم يكن ليـحتمل كل هذه الصفحات.. لولا اللغة الـفخمة لبوكفسكي لما كنت تحملت هذه الزيادات في الجمل والإفادة في القراءات الخاصة عن هوليود ومع ذلك النص رائع.بوكوفسكي في هوليود أسعدني جدًا وقد تعمق فيها ليخرج بغسيلها على الملأ قاصدًا ذلك "جئنا لنأخذ
