Sobre este artículo
New York: Stackpole Sons, 1939. First Edition. Very Good+. First edition. 235 pp. Bound in publisher's oatmeal cloth stamped in brown. Very Good+, lacking dust jacket. A little thumb-soiling to contents, tiny stains to fore edge, corners slightly bumped, small sticker shadow to front free endpaper. A nice copy. A great novel of Los Angeles, hailed by Charles Bukowski as a major influence.

It is one of a series of novels based around the character Arturo Bandini serving as his alter ego, a young Italian-American from Colorado struggling to make it as a writer in Los Angeles. The book is a roman à clef, much of it rooted in autobiographical incidents in Fante's life. The novel influenced Charles Bukowski significantly.
