T...I have a love/hate relaitonship with him, too. <br /><br />The voice in his writing can be fantastic at times. The cadence, the whole bit, it can be wonderful and eviable. <br /><br />His content isn't always top notch, however, and it's hard to get past what an awful person he was. Unfortunately, I watched an old interview on youtube a while back where he was drunk and kicking his girlfriend. <br /><br />But as I get older, I start to like more and more those artists who ride that line between brilliant and terrible. It's like th first time I hear a Nick Cave song: I have to ask myself, "Wait does this suck?" <br /><br />Bukowski is like that.
