Cloth. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. None (illustrator). One of five hundred copies of Alfred Perles' translation of Rilke's charming prose-poem, complete with its unclipped dust wrapper. The first Alfred Perles translation of this prose-poem by Austrian poet Rainer Maria Rilke. Telling of a young soldier in the Austro-Turkish war of the late seventeenth century, it had a modest success upon publication and gained even more popularity with later editions. Reflective of masculine nature, it was often seen on soldiers on the front lines during the First World War.Only five hundred copies were printed of this edition. Complete with its unclipped dust wrapper.Rilke was known as one of the most lyrically intense German-language poets, his work was even described as mystical by some critics due to the author's use of evocative images and the explorations of themes such as solitude and anxiety. In the original publisher's full cloth binding. Externally lovely with minor shelf wear only. The dust wrapper is unclipped and excellent with only minor shelf wear, only a hint of sunning to the spine. Internally, firmly bound. The pages are bright and clean. Fine. book.
