Fitz James O'Brien: A Literary Bohemian of the Eighteen-Fifties is a biography written by Francis Wolle. The book explores the life and work of Fitz James O'Brien, an Irish-American writer who was active in the literary scene of New York in the mid-19th century. O'Brien was known for his short stories, which were often science fiction or horror, and he was a member of the Bohemian Club, a group of writers and artists who rejected conventional society and embraced a countercultural lifestyle. Wolle's biography delves into O'Brien's personal life, including his struggles with alcoholism and his relationships with women. The book also examines O'Brien's literary influences and the impact of his work on the literary world. Wolle draws on primary sources, including O'Brien's letters and manuscripts, to provide a comprehensive portrait of this fascinating figure. Overall, Fitz James O'Brien: A Literary Bohemian of the Eighteen-Fifties offers a detailed and engaging look at the life and work of a writer who was ahead of his time and whose contributions to American literature are still appreciated today.This is a new release of the original 1944 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
