Letters to a Young Poet by Rainer Maria Rilke

5.0

---

does it make me a cheese to say this book may very well have changed my life? the articulate advice to a young, incomplete person is unparalelled in its honesty, opennness & authenticity... from artistic expression to sex to love to walking in the woods, this short book runs the gamut & reminds us to be true to ourselves above all. thank god someone is saying it, even if it's a romantic poet.
