The novel follows the wanderings of aspiring writer Henry Chinaski across World War II-era America. Deferred from military service, Chinaski travels from city to city, moving listlessly from one odd job to another, always needing money but never badly enough to keep a job. His day-to-day existence spirals into an endless litany of pathetic women, sordid rooms, dreary embraces, and drunken brawls, as he makes his bitter, perhaps brilliant way from one drink to the next.
