Synopsis
Distilling the best of Rainer Maria Rilke's uncollected poems and offering a selection that conveys the variety of Rilke's lesser-known writings, a collection of poems reveals a freer, less polished poet and comprises a great achievement in twentieth-century poetry.

Review
Edward Snow has done the poetry-reading world a tremendous service in translating and collecting these previously obscure pieces of Rainer Maria Rilke's. The poems were written late in Rilke's career, and continue his lifelong concerns with the deepest and subtlest questions of being. Beautiful and lyrical writing fills these pages, as in this untitled poem, written in Paris in March, 1913: "We don't know what we spend: / all that's named is past and each being / invents itself at the last second / and will hear nothing ..."
About the Author
Edward Snow has translated Rilke's The Book of Images and the two volumes of Rilke's New Poems, for which he won the Harold Morton Landon Translation Award given by the Academy of American Poets. He is also the author of Inside Bruegel and the acclaimed A Study of Vermeer. He is a professor of English at Rice University.
