Was that your first Bukowski book? Henry Chinaski is pretty much always a prick.

Anyways I plowed through this last night.

My first Stephen King read since sometime in high school (maybe as far back as Freshmen year). It was an enjoyable little piece of fiction that was tense and the protagonist was very vulnerable, at least when compared to modern day horror protagonists. The ending was definitely more uplifting then in the movie adaptation, which just shows how fucking depressing the movies ending was.
