The ultimate expression of intergenerational literary wisdom. Andrew Solomon, The New YorkerA work that has inspired generations, this new edition of Letters to a Young Poet features a fresh translation of Rilkes ten classic letters, along with the missing letters from the young poet himself. For nearly a century, eager writers and young poets, as well as those simply looking for a purpose in life, have embraced the wisdom of Rainer Maria Rilkes Letters to a Young Poet, first published in 1929. Most readers and scholars have long assumed that the letters from the young poet were forever lost to posterity. Yet, shockingly, these letters were recently uncovered in Germany, and now the acclaimed translator Damion Searls has not only cast a fresh eye on Rilkes original letters but also those of the young poet, Franz Xaver Kappus, an Austrian military cadet and an aspiring poet. This timeless edition, in addition to presenting their dialogue together for the first time in English, provides a new window into the workings of Rilkes visionary poetic and philosophical mind, allowing us to reexperience the literary genius of one of the most inspiring works of twentiethcentury literature.
