"In the freewheeling, debaucherous tradition of Charles Bukowski, a taxi driver's stories from the streets of lowlife Los Angeles. Dan Fante lived the stories he wrote. His voice has the immediacy of a stranger of the next barstool, of a friend who lives on the edge. As he writes in Short Dog (the title comes from street slang for a half-pint of alcohol): I had been back working a cabbie gig as a result of my need for money. And insanity. Hack driver is the only occupation I know about with no boss, and because I have always performed poorly at supervised employment, I returned to the taxi business. The upside, now that I was working again, was that my own boozing was under control and I was on beer only, except for my days off.s"-- Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

The one piece that didn't impress, THEBOBBY, was written as play-like dialogue. The dialogue seemed rather stilted and was sometimes repetitive. However, 4-and-1/2 stars rounds up to 5 stars in my book. ( )
