Confessions of a Young Man

Om denne boken

"Confessions of a Young Man" by George Moore is a memoir published in 1888. It chronicles Moore's fifteen years in Paris and London as a struggling young artist immersed in bohemian life. The book vividly portrays the artistic and sensual pleasures of 1870s-80s Paris, where the narrator moves among painters, poets, actresses, and courtesans while absorbing French literary and impressionist theories. Notable for introducing English readers to emerging French Impressionists like Manet and Degas, it shocked Victorian audiences with its frank energy and unconventional morality.
