| Summary | "The Coast of Bohemia" by William Dean Howells is a novel written in the late 19th century. It explores the artistic and social aspirations of its characters, particularly centered around an aspiring artist named Ludlow, who is influenced by his encounters with the people and environments of rural America, as well as the complexities of life in the art world of New York City. The narrative delves into themes of aspiration, identity, and the artistic process against a backdrop of American society. At the start of the story, Ludlow is introduced during a county fair, where he observes both the lively atmosphere and the less appealing aspects of rural life. This environment sparks his artistic inspirations as he longs to capture the essence of the fair in his painting. The reader is given insight into Ludlow's struggles as an artist, his cynicism about art produced in a small town, and a sense of wonder toward the vibrant life surrounding him. The introduction also hints at his interaction with Cornelia, a young girl who aspires to be an artist, suggesting that their paths will intertwine as they embark on their creative journeys in the world of art.
