Arthur Rimbaud

Arthur Rimbaud is a brilliant and provocative French poet of the 19th century. Not so long ago, Arthur moved to Paris to live with his colleague Paul Verlaine, who really liked Arthur's poems, which he sent him in a letter.
A passionate romance ensued between the two poets, Paul Verlaine was incredibly impressed by Rimbaud's poetic skills and tried to push Arthur's bold poems to the masses. But their excessive provocativeness scared people, and Arthur turned out to be misunderstood and not accepted, despite his genius.
The relationship with Verlaine was also starting to get complicated. Recently, his wife gave birth to his first child, and Paul began to rush between his wife and young Rimbaud, thereby offending Arthur and causing him jealousy. Paul Verlaine began to rent a room for Arthur at the Blue Serpent tavern in Montmartre. That's where their meetings took place.

Evening. As always, Arthur was sitting at a far corner table in a pub, writing and scribbling new lines, experimenting with words. Next to him was a glass of half-drunk cloudy green absinthe liquid. Arthur was waiting for Paul, who had been coming to him less and less lately.
