Product Description
Available for the first time in a single volume, Ranier Maria Rilkeâ??s two most beloved sequences of poems rendered by his most faithful translator. Rilke is unquestionably the twentieth centuryâ??s most significant and compelling poet of romantic transformation and spiritual quest. His poems of ecstatic identification with the world exert perennial fascination. In Stephen Mitchellâ??s versions of Rilkeâ??s two greatest masterpieces readers will discover an English rendering that captures the lyric intensity, fluency, and reach of his poetry. Stephen Mitchell adheres impeccably to Rilkeâ??s text, to his formal music, and to the complexity of his thought; at the same time, Mitchellâ??s work has authority and power as poetry in its own right.
