Murger Henry Knihy
Tento autor je významný predovšetkým vďaka svojmu dielu „Scènes de la vie de bohème“, ktoré čerpá z jeho vlastných skúseností zúfalo chudobného spisovateľa žijúceho na parížskej povale a člena voľného združenia priateľov nazývajúcich sa „pijaci vody“ (pretože si nemohli dovoliť víno). Vo svojom písaní kombinuje inštinkt s pátosom a humorom, pričom smútok je jeho prevažujúcim tónom. Jeho dielo, ktoré zahŕňa romány, poviedky a texty piesní, sa stalo inšpiráciou pre rad opier, operiet a muzikálov. Jeho „Pieseň Musetty“ je označovaná za „slzu, ktorá sa stala perlou poézie“.

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."
