5.0 out of 5 stars Reads like a slap in the face, November 8, 2010

This review is from: Chump Change: A Novel (P.S.) (Paperback)
Fante writes this work of fiction in the words of Bruno Dante. It is a fictionalized book that sort of follows who he himself once was but he tells it through Bruno. Its about an insane, unapologetic, blackout drunk. Such a wild ride beginning in New York and ending in LA, California. Starts with Dante being released from the nuthouse after a massive binge which ended with him doing a porno with other men and stabbing himself in the gut with a steak knife. Then, he finds out his father is sick and dying in the hospital so he goes to LA with a wife who despises him to see off his father and visit with his family who treats him like a ticking time bomb. Pretty much everybody has given up on him and he could care less. The book goes through some crazy scenes of him with a prostitute, missions to get booze, and his dads disgusting half dead dog--which seems to be the only things he truly cares about. Such a funny, wild book. I would totally recommend this book but its for a certain type of reader--not meant to make you feel sad or fuzzy at any point.
