Hell No!
Love Bukowski, and have lots.
The noteworthy event recently is that his widow just donated his papers to the Huntington Library. What a kick in the pants it will be for them.
Lisa and I got a chance to see a play at LATC put together from his works that was one theater experience that I'll never forget - the seats were removed and replaced with old matresses, plumbing fixtures, and oh yeah lots of beer and red wine. It was like being at a party in someone's garage as the actors were intersperced throughout the space.
A lot of his writting has been released posthumasly - aparently as he was writting his stuff he would tuck away the "good stuff" to publish when he was dead, thus some of his best works are coming out now. I keep a book of his poetry by my bed tofill in the gaps of my usual reading.
Love his stuff.
