Thoughts on Bukowski
Dark Party Review has an interview with Linda King, who had a "frequent relationship" with Charles Bukowski. I can't imagine being part of a "fighting couple" for five years.

I just finished reading the Bukowski bio, "Locked in the Arms of this Crazy Life." Linda King is a central character in the life of Bukowski. The women in Hank's life were all special in their own way. Fascinating reading. I'm a big Buk fan.
