Synopsis "Letters to a Young Poet: Little Black Classics (Penguin Little Black Classics) "

'What matters is to live everything. Live the questions for now.'

A hugely influential collection for writers and artists of all kinds, Rilke's profound and lyrical letters to a young friend advise on writing, love, sex, suffering and the nature of advice itself.

One of 46 new books in the bestselling Little Black Classics series, to celebrate the first ever Penguin Classic in 1946. Each book gives readers a taste of the Classics' huge range and diversity, with works from around the world and across the centuries - including fables, decadence, heartbreak, tall tales, satire, ghosts, battles and elephants.

View Author's Page
(Praga, 1875 - Valmont, 1926) Escritor checo en lengua alemana. Fue el poeta en lengua alemana más relevante e influyente de la primera mitad del siglo XX; amplió los límites de expresión de la lírica y extendió su influencia a toda la poesía europea.

Después de abandonar la Academia Militar de Mährisch-Weiskirchen, ingresó en la Escuela de Comercio de Linz y posteriormente estudió historia del arte e historia de la literatura en Praga. Residió en Munich, donde en 1897 conoció a Lou Andreas-Salomé, quince años mayor que él, y que tuvo una influencia decisiva en su pasaje a la madurez. Decidido a no ejercer ningún oficio y a dedicarse plenamente a la literatura, emprendió numerosos viajes. Visitó Italia y Rusia (en compañía de Lou Andreas-Salomé), conoció a León Tolstói y entró en contacto con la mística ortodoxa.
