The Selected Poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke
Bilingual Edition
By Rainer Maria Rilke
Translated by Stephen Mitchell, Edited by Stephen Mitchell
Stephen Mitchell offers what are perhaps the most masterful and intimate translations of Rainer Maria Rilke's poetry to date, infusing it with all the power, eloquence, rhythm and lightness of its original voice. Includes the Duino Elegies and The Sonnets to Orpheus.
"This miracle of a book, perhaps the most beautiful group of poetic translations this century has ever produced," (Chicago Tribune) should stand as the definitive English language version.
