Kafka Was the Rage: A Greenwich Village Memoir Paperback - 1997
by Anatole Broyard
What Hemingway's "A Moveable Feast" did for Paris in the 1920s, this charming yet undeceivable memoir does for Greenwich Village in the late 1940s. In 1946, Anatole Broyard was a dapper, earnest, fledgling avant-gardist, intoxicated by books, sex, and the neighborhood that offered both in such abundance. Stylish written, mercurially witty, imbued with insights that are both affectionate and astringent, this memoir offers an indelible portrait of a lost bohemia.
First line
My life, or career, in Greenwich Village began when Sheri Donatti invited me to move in with her.
