Product Description
Review
'Her intellectual enthusiam, ironic humour and delight in bohemian absurdity make this a fascinating book to read.' --Sheila Rowbotham, Financial Times
'...a book that is intricately informative, expertly researched and highly entertaining.' --Literary Review
Product Description
Since the early nineteenth century, the bohemian has been the hero of the story the West has wanted to hear about its artists: a story of genius, glamour and doom. The bohemian is variously the artist dying in poverty like Chatterton or Modigliani, a successful self-destroyer like Jackson Pollock, or a celebrity like Nina Hamnett. Elizabeth Wilson s remakable, enjoyable 'Bohemians' is a quest for the many shifting meanings that constitute bohemianism.
