About the Author
Rilke married Clara Westhoff in 1901, and had a daughter, Ruth, in 1902. After the birth of their daughter, they moved to Paris, where Clara worked with the famous sculptor Auguste Rodin, and Rilke wrote a monograph on him. He died in France in 1926, and is buried beside the little church of Raron, overlooking the Rhone Valley.
