I read James Wolcott's memoir "Lucking Out: My Life Getting Down and
Semi-Dirty in Seventies New York.

Kael is prominently featured in one section.  She and Wolcott became
great friends back then.  She was, it seems, a bit controversial, and
eventually fell victim to rivals' attacks, both from within and
without the New Yorker.
