i finished it and still don't get everyones love of it.
I have just finished Stoner, which I thought was both excellent and depressing. Just before that I read Pulp. I quite enjoyed it but research suggests I picked a bad book to introduce myself to Bukowski. I'm going to give Post Office a go on I think Luci's suggestion.
I've been meaning to try Gravity's Rainbow again, but I think i'll leave it a bit.

Seems to be tennis and drugs. And presumably that's what's the Ilie Nastase biography is for.
