Synopsis:

Orpheus represents the poet's journey into understanding of life and death. He is Rilke's touchstone, the mythical poet who could enchant beasts, birds, and spirits with his music. The poems express Rilke's delicate sense of the beauty and transience of life and the transforming possibilities of love.


Review:

"This ORPHEUS successfully competes with earlier versions with its enchanting English text."

Ray Gonzalez, Bloomsbury Review, September/October 2001
