David Berger & Paul Buhle 
Bohemians 
A Graphic History

The countercultures that came to define bohemia spanned the Atlantic, encompassing Walt Whitman’s Brooklyn and the Folies Berg�re of Josephine Baker, Gertrude Stein’s salons and the Manhattan clubs where Dizzy Gillespie made his name. Edited by Paul Buhle and David Berger,
Bohemians is the graphic history of this movement and its illustrious figures. The stories collected here revisit the utopian ideas behind millennial communities, the rise of Greenwich Village and Harlem, the multiracial and radical jazz and dance worlds, and the West Coast, Southern, and Midwest bohemias of America, among other radical scenes.

Drawn by an all-star cast of comic artists,
Bohemians is a broad and entertaining account of the rebel impulse in American cultural history. Featuring work by Spain Rodriguez, Sharon Rudahl, Peter Kuper, Sabrina Jones, David Lasky, Afua Richardson, Lance Tooks, Milton Knight, and more.

The ebook edition is expanded from the paperback edition, and includes additional chapters on the swing music scene,
La Boheme and midwest bohemians, as well as expanded material on the Greenwich Village intellectuals, Walt Whitman and Harlem jazz club Minton’s Playhouse.
