A review by katevrst
Duino Elegies by Rainer Maria Rilke
5.0
2020: 5 stars
2019: The first elegy is beautiful, but the ones that come after did not touch me as much. I also liked how evert elegy is linked to or inspired a sculpture of Rodin.
''For beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror, that we are still able to bear,
and we revere it so, because it calmly disdains to destroy us.''
