Thank you for stopping by; the book looks highly absorbing. I became enamoured with the exemplary prodigal son through the haunting Duino Elegies - advancing my consciousness towards ‘the open’. I may dress entirely in black and carry a single long-stemmed iris through the streets if I pick up a copy.

All the best.

I adore Rilke. Thank you for the Add Request, and pardon my not saying anything sooner. I anticipate this work, almost as much as I do the deceased RE's "Wilde." Wilde and Rilke, and Lorca, are three prominent influences, them and Dorothy Parker and Djuna Barnes! :-D Have a lovely night.

Thank you. My sister changed my life when I was 16 by giving me a beat up copy of "Letters...". RMR's words are, and have always been, the words I live by.

One of my all time favourites..
a thousand translations exist..

His gaze, from the constantly passing bars,
Has grown so weary that it can hold no more.
To him it is as if there are a thousand bars,
And beyond those thousand bars, no world.

The gentle slink of his powerful, supple stride,
Turning in on itself in ever-smaller circles,
Is as a ritual dance of strength around a center
In which a great will stands paralyzed.

Occasionally the curtain of his pupils
Will silently rise, admitting an image.
Passing through the tense stillness of his limbs,
It plunges into his heart and is no more.

Greetings M. Allen and thanks for finding me! I can't wait to get a copy of this! Lou Salome may have been Rilke's greatest love and inspiration but it was Rodin who truly made him a poet.

Thank you for the add request; I'm pleased you found me. Rainer Maria Rilke tops my list of favorite classic poets.
Michael Garfield

Mar 18, 2007 1:14 AM

Was it through my Rilke quote (probably) or my frienship with Paul Lonely of the Suicide Dictionary (you should look him up anyway) that led you to me? Either way, I approve. Mightily.

I practically started drooling when I saw what this book would be about. There just isn't enough about Mr. Rilke & I'm so glad someone is finally taking notice of his brilliance. I can't WAIT to read this! Bravo!

Perhaps, someone in the future will pick up your book and finally make a movie worthy of Rilke...

Woman in Love

That is my window. Just now
I have so softly wakened.
I thought that I would float.
How far does my life reach,
and where does the night begin

I could think that everything
was still me all around;
transparent like a crystal's
depths, darkened, mute.

I could keep even the stars
within me; so immense
my heart seems to me; so willingly
it let him go again.

whom I began perhaps to love, perhaps to hold.
Like something strange, undreamt-of,
my fate now gazes at me.

For what, then, am I stretched out
beneath this endlessness,
exuding fragrance like a meadow,
swayed this way and that,

calling out and frightened
that someone will hear the call,
and destined to disappear
inside some other life.

Translated by Edward Snow
