Synopsis
Relatively early in Rilke's literary career, these letters began as advice addressed to a young student who had solicited it by sending Rilke some poems. The two authors never met, but over the course of several years a correspondence developed in which Rilke composed astoundingly elegant and eloquent characterizations of the craft and discipline of poetry--and life. Subsequently, these letters have come to embody a seminal 20th-century statement on the artistic temperament, spirituality, and creativity.
