Synopsis
Facsimile of 1943 Edition. Born in 1875, the great German lyric poet Rainer Maria Rilke published his first collection of poems in 1898 and went on to become renowned for his delicate depiction of the workings of the human heart. Drawn by some sympathetic note in his poems, young people often wrote to Rilke with their problems and hopes. From 1903 to 1908 Rilke wrote a series of remarkable responses to a young, would-be poet on poetry and on surviving as a sensitive observer in a harsh world. Those letters, ten in all, remain a fresh source of inspiration and insight to the poetic sensibility to this day.

About the Author
Rainer Maria Rilke (1875-1926) was an intensely lyrical poet, concerned with mystical and existential themes, who was a major voice in the transition of German poetry from traditionalism to modernism. His works include Duino Elegies, Sonnets to Orpheus, and The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge.
