The renowned essayist, philosopher, and novelist presents a close-up study and rendering of Rainer Maria Rilke's poetic masterpiece Duino Elegies as he reflects on the art of translating a work from another language while maintaining the true essence of the original.
Review:
"READING RILKE, a deep celebration of reading and translation, is a kind of antidote for when words become unhinged from meaning, an antidote to the loneliness of reading and writing. Gass repairs the arteries between the heart and the mind and the mouth and the hand, giving them new flexibility and vigor."
Los Angeles Times, 09/26/1999
Review:"[This is]a genre-free book that is a joy to read, reflecting Gass's own joy in reading Rilke. Like most of Gass's essays, it wanders through a jungle of ideas and images, and then suddenly beats a series of clearly marked, though often forking, paths toward a clearing....[READING RILKE] is...like a work of art itself, being rather than serving a purpose."
Robert Wechsler, Washington Post Book World, 10/10/1999
