Mr. Seigel has written a cultural history that respects the complex entanglements found in both life and art, and that is no mean feat. -- Arnold Weinstein New York Times Book Review The research that went into Bohemian Paris turns up some treasures-the very stuff of history... This highly readable book probes further than any other I know into the reciprocating movements that connect and distinguish bohemia and bourgeois. -- Roger Shattuck New York Review of Books This is an enormously useful approach to a complex phenomenon... It also brings together a dazzling assortment of individuals, from such well-known figures as Baudelaire, Courbet, Zola, Manet, Verlaine, and Rimbaud to such relatively obscure figures as the writer Henry Murger and the cabaret owner Emile Goudeau. -- Jay Tolson Nation It deserves to be read... for the skill with which it explores an ever-interesting tract of cultural history. -- John Gross New York Times","brand":"Johns Hopkins University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49405190439255,"sku":"9780801860638","price":26.1,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/bohemian-paris-9780801860638","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
