  “This book goes down easy, like booze. Funny and educational. Find out why so many people were going 'Postal' back in the day. ”

  “Can the Post Office possibly be the way he describes? I don't know, but this book is good fun to read. A little too "relationships mean nothing and I have no sentimental attachment to anyone" for my taste, but I rated it high because I tore through it.”

  “Charles Bukowski isn't for the weak at heart.... his writing is considered crass, by some. Don't know why he clicks for me. Maybe he appeals to my crass side. This novel is often described as really funny, but much of it is sad, to me. I also love Bukowski's poetry, which never fails to delight and surprise me.”

  “Postverket av Charles Bukowski.
  Andra boken jag läser av CB, den första var "Women" (på port. Mulheres) som jag inte gillade särskilt mycket. Jag borde ha läst dem i omvänd ordning, för Postverket är tydligen hans första bok. Här lärde jag känna en annan sida av CB:s tillvaro som jag bara anade fanns där i Mulheres. Mer sadistiska byråkrater och färre kvinnor. Jag läste boken av en händelse första veckan på jobbet efter min semester. Det var kanske inte helt lyckad timing. ”

  “I LOVED this book! It's hilariously raw. You know these characters. You might be one. One thing is for sure, I have a new respect for postal workers. I can't wait to read more of Bukowski's work.”

  “I was so disappointed in this book. I a big Borroughs & Sedaris fan, so when I read the rave reviews from others who enjoy the same type of writing I couldn't wait to read it. It was a quick 2-day read, but I thought the story was just sad.”
