Factotum by Charles Bukowski

[@MIB_63]

Excellent narration. I have read this novel many times and it never gets boring.

This is the only thing keeping me from losing my sanity during this week long struggle with isolation due to the mainstream disease plaguing humanity. Thanks for the upload

[@martinsmith4866]

Keep up the Bukowski spirit - I am a troubled man with nothing but a faint glimmer of something indecipherable on the horizon…I squint my bloodshot eye s& see it is a four letter word - no it wasn’t ‘f$ck..it was the word HOPE - there it was it was the thing that kept me alive, it was my saline drip, my life support. With that distant hazy word, I knew I’d survive long enough to win some luck…

That’s my Bukowski - esque way I do saying hang in there fella!

@ yo this is beautiful thank you for sharing

The more you listen, the better it gets. Awesome.

There’s no doubt this narrator is amazing as Bukowski but my god the way he does women is absolutely priceless 😂

Thanks for the re-upload, my man.

Enjoyed this. Narrator did fairly good job doing Bukowski's voice.

“Colleges are the new plantations and professors are the new masters.” Bukowski I mean, Cheneski,

[@MedranoHijo]

Especially today with Poetry. Absolute govt funded BS.

[@lilithbleeding5208]

No problem I got what you mean. I'm currently in a bad place with someone stalking me so I can seem a little on edge because I don't want any problems anymore. I really appreciate your work on Bukowski who is such an amazing poet so misunderstood. Full support from me.

[@ALLCAPS]

I'm glad you understand

[@Charlieboy2680]

Man this is great! The narrator is good sounds alot like Bukowski. I've read all of Bukowskis books back in the day,this brings me back. Every time he would talk about another author in his books id check em out. Got turned on to alot of good writers from Buk ! MF DOOM?

[@ALLCAPS]

Yes MF DOOM! HAHA listen to Cellz by DOOM

@@ALLCAPS do you have a list of all the authors he has recommended? You can tell me one or two of the ones you remember.

[@ALLCAPS]

@@commonlogic3646 ezra pound, john fante, sherwood anderson, fyodor dostoyevsky, and there was one other one but it escapes my mind right now.

[@commonlogic3646]

@@ALLCAPS thank you so much. Celene too perhaps?

[@johnruggiero4205]

He does sound a lot like Buke. He narrates a lot of his stuff on KZbin. Christian Vasquez, I think?

[@travisreagan766]

Thank you for posting this.

[@johnruggiero4205]

This is Bukowski’s masterpiece novel. He has some good ones, and I’m not discounting his great collection books of prose or poetry. Idk LA at all, but I know Miami. Remember this was only 15-20 years after the first major highway ran to Miami. It was in its infancy, much like LA.

[@johnruggiero4205]

This was in an era, just after WWII, when one could arrive in town, get a room, find a job through an emolument agency, and make enough to pay rent, buy booze, cigarettes, clothe, and feed ones self. We squandered that ability.

[@Saturnia2014]

@@johnruggiero4205 Yep, and it's been a disaster ever since

[@markalexander3659]

That narrator is awesome. He sounds so funny when he does the female voice or reads some of the lines in a weird way lol

[@helpyourcattodrive]

Love this. ❤

The only bad thing is the credits because the volume surges a bit and fucks up my sleep.

The narrator when he reads in a women voice😂😂

lmao --it grows on you!

There are glimpses of brilliance in Bukoski but the rest is dross. I am reminded of the monkeys, typewriters and the Works of Shakespeare .... Shakesoeare ...
