This book analyzes bohemians’ often overlooked relationship to work using historical and ethnographic research on Paris and downtown New York. Halasz argues that bohemians’ unconventional behaviors and attitudes towards employment and the broader work world constitute a politically charged yet increasingly precarious form of cultural resistance to hegemonic imperatives.
