"The Bohemians is an astonishing story of the anti-Nazi resistance--a story of love, incredible bravery and self-sacrifice, which could end only in death--and it is brilliantly told." --Antony Beevor, New York Times best-selling author of The Fall of Berlin 1945 , The Second World War , and D-Day "An unforgettable portrait of two young lovers and their circle of friends in the anti-Hitler resistance, The Bohemians offers a fascinating glimpse of life in Nazi Germany, where the simple self-assertion of youth was a political act, and daily life was a minefield where missteps could have fatal consequences." --Joseph Kanon, New York Times best-selling author of Leaving Berlin and The Good German "A thrilling and urgent true story. Inside Nazi Germany, as tyranny spreads, a few friends decide to resist, and a secret circle of anti-fascists starts to grow. They are not mythic heroes but instead flawed humans struggling for meaning in a time of terror: writers, artists, a fashion designer, a dentist. With skill and passion, Norman Ohler brings these remarkable men and women back to life. The Bohemians is a gift of a book--one I feel a little stronger, a little braver, after reading." --Jason Fagone, author of the best-selling The Woman Who Smashed Codes: A True Story of Love, Spies, and the Unlikely Heroine Who Outwitted America's Enemies "A taut, absorbing tale of anti-Nazi resistance .
Conveys a sense of immediacy and encroaching terror . Sharply drawn characters enliven a tragic history." -- Kirkus Reviews.
