THE BOHEMIAN LOVE DIARIES

Book ID/图书代码： 06840012B58839

English Summary/英文概要： A hilarious, riveting tale infused with Slash Coleman’s distinct blend of southern charm, THE BOHEMIAN LOVE DIARIES chronicles Coleman’s upbringing in a warped but loving household of eccentric artists, and his search in unexpected places for the Bohemian ideals of truth, beauty, freedom and love. With a laugh out loud perversity that brings to mind Jonathan Ames and Hunter S. Thompson, and a cutting edge that might make you think Slash was raised in Chuck Palahniuk’s attic by John Hodgman, THE BOHEMIAN LOVE DIARIES is as much a pleasure to read as a mind-jolting experience.

Descended from a posse of off-beat immigrant artists (including a grandfather who was a dancer at the Moulin Rouge) and raised in the Capital of the Confederacy during the 70s and 80s, young Slash sets out to find love while remaining true to his creative spirit. His unforgettable misadventures are bound together by his evolving definition of love, from a boyhood fixation on Evel Knievel and the rock band KISS to a more complicated obsession with traveling the world to find the girl of his dreams. At its core, this is a book about heart, and finding the courage to always express what’s inside it. Alternately hilarious and profound, THE BOHEMIAN LOVE DIARIES reveals a brilliant young artist whose passionate spirit refuses to be suppressed.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： Slash Coleman将让人喜不自禁，又引人入胜的故事和南方风情紧密的联系起来，《波西米亚爱情日记》以编年的方式，记录他在怪异却又充满爱的艺术家之家成长历程，此外还记录了他对波西米亚的真理，美，自由和爱情的研究。本书中对邪恶的嘲讽让您想起Jonathan Ames和Hunter S.Thompson, 书中的前沿内容让人认为Slash是由John Hodgman在Chuck Palahniuk的阁楼中一手带大。阅读《波西米亚爱情日记》不仅带给您欢乐，还会给您带来心灵上的震撼。

Slash作为一群弱势艺术家的后代（其祖父是在红磨坊[巴黎著名歌舞厅]的舞者），成长于七八十年代的联邦首府，他期望能在寻找爱情的同时守护住自己的创新精神。他令人难以忘怀的悲惨境遇与他对爱的定义离不开，如童年时期就狂爱Evel Knievel及滚石乐队“吻”，又如边旅行边寻找梦中女孩的复杂痴迷。这本书的核心是心灵，这是本有关寻找勇气去表达心灵意义的书。《波西米亚爱情日记》时而疯狂，时而深沉，它讲述了一位不愿压抑自己激情的年轻艺术家。

公众广播电台这样评论说“Coleman有种改变人们想法的天赋”。(XMM)
