Autoren-Porträt von Guido Bruno
Guido Bruno (1884-1942) was a notable figure in the American literary scene of the early 20th century, renowned as a publisher, editor, and writer who championed Bohemian culture and the avant-garde. With a worldly perspective forged by his European roots in Prague, Bruno immigrated to the United States where he was immersed in the vibrant bohemian community, particularly in New York's Greenwich Village. His literary contributions are evident in his work 'Adventures in American Bookshops, Antique Stores and Auction Rooms' (1922), a reflective exploration of the diverse and intimate world of bookshops and their cultural significance in America's literary and artistic circles. This travelogue style book provides a vivid account of his encounters and observations, offering a unique perspective into the heart of American antiquarian commerce and its role in supporting a flourishing literary culture. Bruno's style is marked by a rich blend of narrative observations, personal anecdotes, and contemplative musings that marked him as an important chronicler of bohemian life, contributing to the fabric of American modernist literature.
