Query: A complete letdown.

What really amazes me about this book is that it is the second half of a book originally published as one large selection of Bukowski's short stories. I have read the collected first half which is called "The Most Bueatiful Woman In Town And Other Short Stories" and liked it emensily. However with this book everything fell apart and I did'nt even read the last few stories. Strange indeed. I guess my first experience with Bukowski was fresh and new. Now my second experience was just putting up with a boring drunk. This could quite probably kill any desire to read more of Bukowski.
