På den amerikanske vestkyst i Los Angeles arbejder Henry Chinaski for postvæsnet. Vi følger ham i en hverdag præget af faste rutiner, hvor dagen begynder tidligt med at dele breve ud, mens fritiden fordrives med hestevæddeløb, druk til langt ud på natten og talrige og sporadiske romancer med mange forskellige kvinder, før det igen bliver morgen, og hele rumlen starter forfra.

The American writer Charles Bukowski (1920-94) developed a cult following for his simple and vivid poems, stories and novels based on his experiences as a hard-drinking postal worker in Los Angeles. His classic books include Post Office, Women and Love Is a Dog from Hell. In this engrossing biography, studded with excerpts from Bukowski's writing, Howard Sounes tells the true story of Bukowski's life in the same punchy style as his subject.
