Neo-Bohemia: Art and Commerce in the Postindustrial City

Unmarked text. Tables, figures, and a few black-and-white illustrations. 295p. Measures 6x9 inches. Notes. References. Index.

In this book Richard Lloyd asks how did bohemia-- the emergence of a mass alternative nation, populated by struggling screenwriters, oddball thrift stores, indie rockers, and thousands of coffee houses--become such an ordinary thing.

His focus is on one of America's most successful new bohemias, Chicago's Wicker Park - site of the hip film High Fidelity and launching pad of alt rock stars like Liz Phair.
