Synopses & Reviews
Bohemianism is a way of life, a state of mind, an atmosphere. It is not a trend, its a timeless movement. It is about living beyond convention.
Bohemian Manifesto explores and joyfully celebrates the creativity, the originality, and the splendor of a lifestyle and spirit shared by free-thinking, free-living artists, poets, writers, sculptors, musicians, and intellectuals.
This is the first book to distill and categorize all the ingredients of Bohemian life. In a witty and engaging style, Laren Stover examines the contents of a Bohemians closet, bathroom, and bookshelf. She explains the allure of absinthe, why it isnt wise to leave a Bohemian unattended in your home--you could return to find nude nymphs painted on your lamp shades and how to identify what type of Bohemian you might be.
Review
"A really fun read, akin to a triple espresso." Joel Gray
Review
"Reading Laren Stover is not simply an engagement of the senses. It is a seduction of the senses transporting you to the magical and siftly illuminating place whence she writes. The book in your hand is a rare ticket out of here, to where people live and breathe and play with fire." Nick Tosches
Review
"The bourgeois world is a real world in which everything is fake. The bohemian world is a fake world in which everything is real. Laren Stover catalogs those realities with accuracy, sympathy and intoxicating charm." Tom Robbins
