Breezy Glimpses into the Heart of Bohemia
"The author gets at the intimate secrets, the subtle charm of the
Quarter. A spirit of gaiety runs through the book."--_Phila.
Press._
By F. BERKELEY SMITH
Author of "How Paris Amuses Itself"
The Real Latin Quarter
In these captivating and realistic sketches, the reader is taken into
the very heart of Bohemia and shown the innermost life and characters in
this little world of art and amusement. The author pictures with brush,
pen, and camera every nook and corner of the Quarter with such light and
vivid touches that the reader is made to feel the very spirit, breathe
the very atmosphere within these fascinating precincts. We look down
upon the giddy whirl of the "Bal Bullier," enjoy a cozy breakfast at
"Lavenue's," stroll through the Luxembourg Gardens, peep into studios
and little corners known only to the initiated, mingle with the throng
of models, grisettes, students, and artists on "Boul Miche" and in a
hundred other ways see and enjoy this unconventional center.
