Murger Henry

    Questo autore si distingue principalmente per la sua opera «Scènes de la vie de bohème», tratta dalle sue esperienze personali di scrittore disperatamente povero che viveva in una soffitta parigina, membro di un gruppo informale di amici che si autodefinivano «i bevitori d'acqua» a causa della loro indigenza. La sua scrittura fonde istinto, pathos e umorismo, con una predominanza di tono malinconico. La sua produzione letteraria, che include romanzi, racconti e testi di canzoni, ha ispirato numerose opere liriche, operette e musical. La sua «Canzone di Musette» è descritta come «una lacrima che è diventata una perla di poesia».

      Louis-Henri Murger, also known as Henri Murger and Henry Murger (1822-1861) was a French novelist and poet. His literary career began about 1841. His first essays were mainly literary and poetic, but under the pressure of earning a living he wrote whatever he could find a market for, turning out prose as he put it, "at the rate of eighty francs an acre." At one point he edited a fashion newspaper, Le Moniteur de la Mode, and a paper for the millinery trade, Le Castor. He is chiefly distinguished as the author of Scenes de la Vie de Boheme, from his own experiences as a desperately poor writer living in a Parisian attic, and member of a loose club of friends who called themselves "the water drinkers." He wrote lyrics as well as novels and stories, the chief being La Chanson de Musette, "a tear, " says Gautier, "which has become a pearl of poetry."
