Book Overview

Sketches From Bohemia: Being Stories Of The Stage, The Study, And The Studio (1890) is a collection of short stories by Shafto Justin Adair Fitz-Gerald. The book is set in Bohemia, a term used to describe a community of artists, writers, and intellectuals who lived unconventional and nonconformist lifestyles. The stories are divided into three sections: The Stage, The Study, and The Studio. In The Stage, Fitz-Gerald explores the world of theater and the lives of the actors who perform on stage. The stories in this section are filled with drama, romance, and humor. The Study focuses on the lives of scholars and intellectuals who inhabit the world of academia. These stories are more introspective and philosophical in nature. Finally, The Studio takes the reader into the world of artists and their creative process. Overall, Sketches From Bohemia is a vibrant and colorful look at the lives of the bohemian community in the late 19th century. Fitz-Gerald's writing style is engaging and witty, and his characters are both endearing and eccentric. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of bohemianism or the cultural and artistic movements of the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
