Book Discussion with Mary Relindes Ellis, author of Bohemian Flats
The story of a man caught up in the immigrant culture of a river village in Minnesota, and in the throes of World War I
Mary Ellis’s rich gift for
imagining carries us from the bourgeois world of fin de siècle Germany
to a vibrant immigrant enclave in the heart of the Midwest and to the
killing fields of World War I. The Bohemian Flats conjures both the sweep of irresistible history and the intimate reality of a man, and a family, caught up in it.
The Bohemian Flats,
bristling with historical detail, is a story about family members
immigrating into the United State from Europe and settling in a unique
district in Minneapolis.
