Henry Charles Bukowski (August 16 1920 – March 9 1994), was a German American poet, novelist, and short story writer. Bukowski's writing was heavily influenced by the geography and atmosphere of his home city of Los Angeles, and is marked by an emphasis on the ordinary lives of marginalized poor American Whites, the act of writing, alcohol, relationships with women, the drudgery of work, and horseracing. A prolific author, Bukowski wrote thousands of poems, hundreds of short stories, and six novels, eventually having 110 books in print. He is often remembered as "The Poet Laureate of Skid Row".

Relationship description

They are somehow similar in their highly skeptical and somewhat nihilistic approach to humanity, but Houellebecq's prose is full of despair while Bukowski finds salvation indulging into worldly pleasures.
