I enjoyed this dazzling dive into a San Francisco of 100 years ago. The timeless beauty of The City comes alive through the dramas experienced by a fictionalized yet thoroughly convincing Dorothea Lange. Richly detailed and lively storytelling rekindles my passion for this fabled fogtown, and curious to seek out the dwindling relics of the times when artists, poets, and assorted oddballs could afford to live the Bohemian lifestyle.
