About the book

Henry Murger's Scenes of Bohemian Life portrays a group of impoverished young artists, writers and musicians living in the Latin Quarter of Paris. Their friendships, romances, ambitions and financial struggles create a lively picture of nineteenth-century bohemian culture. Alternately comic and poignant, Murger's episodes celebrate artistic idealism and companionship while acknowledging the insecurity, disappointment and hardship that accompany life on the margins of respectable society.
