Paperback. Zustand: Good. They ate garlic and didn't always bathe; they listened to Wagner and worshiped Diaghilev; they sent their children to coeducational schools, explored homosexuality and free love, vegetarianism and Post-impressionism. They were often drunk and broke, sometimes hungry, but they were of a rebellious spirit. Inhabiting the same England with Philistines and Puritans, this parallel minority of moral pioneers lived in a world of faulty fireplaces, bounced checks, blocked drains, whooping cough, and incontinent cats. They were the bohemians. Virginia Nicholson -- the granddaughter of painter Vanessa Bell and the great-niece of Virginia Woolf -- explores the subversive, eccentric, and flamboyant artistic community of the early twentieth century in this "wonderfully researched and colorful composite portrait of an enigmatic world whose members, because they lived by no rules, are difficult to characterize" (San Francisco Chronicle).…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Subversive, eccentric and flamboyant, the artistic community in England in the first half of the twentieth century was engaged in a bold experiment in which they refashioned not just their art, but also their daily lives. They were often broke, hungry, and drunk, but they also challenged and rejected the ideals of the Victorian bourgeoisie, igniting a cultural transformation that would eventually change society itself. Virginia Nicholson explores this quiet revolution, where Evelyn Waugh, Dylan Thomas, Virginia Woolfe, and other artistic pioneers approached the art of living with the same iconoclastic spirit that characterized their work. Although many of the Bohemians have been long forgotten, their joie de vivre lives on.Virginia Nicholson was born in Newcastle upon Tyne. After studying at Cambridge University she lived in France and Italy and then worked as a documentary researcher for BBC television. Her first book Charleston: A Bloomsbury House and Garden -- written in collaboration with her father, Quentin Bell -- was an account of the Sussex home of her grandmother, the painter Vanessa Bell, who was Virginia Woolf's sister. She has married, has three children and lives in Sussex."Not only comprehensive and intimately knowledgeable, it is also a marvelously charming, colorful and loving panorama of the social and artistic pioneers who opened the doors to a far freer life that we now take for granted." -- New York Times Book Review.…
