Ballads of a Bohemian
'Ballads of a Bohemian' Summary
Ballads of a Bohemian presents a collection of poems narrated through the lens of Stephen Poore, a self-proclaimed bohemian living in Paris before and during World War I. The poems capture the vibrant and chaotic life of pre-war Paris, the brutal realities of the war, and its profound impact on Poore and those around him.
