In what is widely hailed as the best of his many novels, Charles Bukowski details the long, lonely years of his own hardscrabble youth in the raw voice of alter ego Henry Chinaski. From a harrowingly cheerless childhood in Germany through acne-riddled high school years and his adolescent discoveries of alcohol, women, and the Los Angeles Public Library's collection of D. H. Lawrence, Ham on Rye offers a crude, brutal, and savagely funny portrait of an outcast's coming-of-age during the desperate days of the Great Depression.

A captivating story of a derooted and deranged man.
The performance of the reader was annoying me at first, but then I started enjoying it as it perfectly fits the roughness of the story.

Rough and authentic

Great book! Very raw and authentic yet still very funny.

The writing style and dialogue is “full of juice” as Bukowski would say himself.
Christian Baskous as the audiobook narrator steals the show.

Although it definitely isn’t politically correct in the slightest, that is also what I found so funny about it.

Definitely going to read more Charles Bukowski!

Amazing Autobiographical Work!

as Bukowski talks it himself! Christian Baskous is a great Speaker! I will hear more from him.

Very good!

Trashy, raw, crude and not of literary value - a disappointing and disgusting work that I can highly recommend you not waste your time with.

Trashy style.

The writing (to me at least) is style over substance. There is hardly any story, hardly any character development and the end just plain boring.
The reader is speaking like he's just gotten fired and doesn't give a shit. Maybe it's supposed to be read that way, I don't know. I do know that I didn't like it.
Some memorable quotes though - that's why I gave three stars instead of two.
