Врящото гърне е историята на един парижки четириетажен дом и на неговите обитатели: Октав Муре, дошъл в Париж, за да си намери влиятелна любовница, чрез която да се издигне в обществото; сестрите Берт и Ортанс, подлагани от ламтящата си за богатство майка на всякакви унижения, само и само за да се сдобият със заможни съпрузи; собственикът на сградата Вабр, един архитект, един съдебен съветник - все френски буржоа от времето на Втората империя.

Емил Верхарн израства сред просторите на Фландрия с нейното буйно пролетно цъфтене, с проливните дъждове и дебели снегове, с грубите делници на отрудените хора - и нищо чудно, че ранните му стихове са по-скоро картинни с тежката сочна четка на старите фламандски майстор, славословещи битието с грижите и простите човешки радости. И по-късно, когато се обръща към града, този истински октопод, който изсмуква силите на живота, Верхарн запазва свежестта на своите възприятия, мечтата си за един по-хармоничен свят. Наричат го поет на стихиите, на величественото и това иде от сътресенията и тътена на епохата, които неговото сърце ... |
