Miller's a crime of passion, I realise. I probably should've said Bataille, but I very much doubt that Bukowski was aware of him. Before anyone lays into this, I'll point out that Batialle wasn't, to my knowledge, translated into English until after Bukowski started writing.
I do think Miller, regardless of his standing in 'proper' literary circles, is incredibly important to the beats in general. For better or worse...
