Among the Bohemians by Virginia Nicholson
Subversive, eccentric and flamboyant, the Bohemians embarked on a quiet revolution that refashioned the way we live our daily lives. They ate garlic and didn't always wash; they painted and danced and didn't care what people thought. They sent their children to co-ed schools; explored homosexuality and Free Love, they were often drunk, broke and hungry but they were rebels. The artistic community in the first half of the twentieth century was engaged in a grand experiment. They re-invented the home, rejecting and questioning all the old rules, in what amounted to a domestic revolution. Creativity entered every aspect of their lives.
VIRGINIA NICHOLSON is the granddaughter of Vanessa Bell. A freelance journalist and researcher, she is Deputy Chairman of The Charleston Trust. Her first book was Charleston: A Bloomsbury House and Garden. Virginia Nicholson lives in Sussex.
