Charles Bukowski’s Women in the form of a narrative map, the prototype of which was first conceived for Mike Essl’s information design course at Cooper Union. A total of thirty one women appear in this novel, a few of which Bukowski’s main character did not sleep with. This map documents the duration of each woman’s appearance by page numbers, as well as Henry Chinaski’s opinion of them based on the words “fuck” and “love” as mentioned in the book.
