Description

Das Buch der Bilder or The Book of Images is a collection of poetry by Rainer Maria Rilke consisting of individual poems written from 1899 and forward.

Author

Rainer Maria Rilke (1875–1926) was an Austrian poet of inward intensity — Duino Elegies, Sonnets to Orpheus, and the novel of Malte Laurids Brigge. He wrote of angels, things, and the difficult work of seeing clearly. Rilke's German is musical and demanding; his letters and poems still teach readers how to live with questions rather than slogans. With 6 titles in our catalogue, he remains a voice for those who want poetry that thinks.
