Rebels in Bohemia: The Radicals of The Masses, 1911-1917 (University of North Carolina Press, 1982) is a study of the radicals and bohemians associated with The Masses, a socialist literary and political magazine published in Greenwich Village in the 1910s. The book focuses on the personal and political conflicts and tensions experienced by The Masses' contributors as a result of their simultaneous commitment to a welter of often incompatible beliefs in Freudianism, feminism, socialism, anarchism, syndicalism, sexual freedom, birth control, and art as a weapon in the class struggle and their tortuous efforts to resolve the resulting turmoil in their lives.
