Rainer Maria Rilke is one of the greatest poets of the 20th century. In his poems there was a place for a wide variety of thoughts, feelings, fantasies: this is “loneliness among the crowd”, and wanderings around Europe, the love of women, reading magical stories, the world of art, ancient myths and ancient legends, memories of childhood, dreams, dreams, religious insights... A native of Prague, who wrote in German, he deeply felt his involvement in European culture and firmly believed that “the inner world of a person is valuable, it is full of hidden meanings and meanings understandable to him alone.” This publication contains the most significant poetic Rilke's books in brilliant translations by Vladimir Mikushevich.
