Sinossi
This is the definitive, widely acclaimed translation of the major prose work of one of our century's greatest poets -- "a masterpiece like no other" (Elizabeth Hardwick) -- Rilke's only novel, extraordinary for its structural uniqueness and purity of language. First published in 1910, it has proven to be one of the most influential and enduring works of fiction of our century.
Malte Laurids Brigge is a young Danish nobleman and poet living in Paris. Obsessed with death and with the reality that lurks behind appearances, Brigge muses on his family and their history and on the teeming, alien life of the city. Many of the themes and images that occur in Rilke's poetry can also be found in the novel, prefiguring the modernist movement in its self-awareness and imagistic immediacy.

Informazioni sull?autore
Rainer Maria Rilke (1875–1926) was one of the greatest lyric German-language poets. Born in Prague, he published his first book of poems, Leben und Lieber, at age 19. In 1897 he met Lou Andreas-Salomé, the talented and spirited daughter of a Russian army officer, who influenced him deeply. In 1902 he became a friend, and for a time the secretary, of Rodin, and it was during his 12-year Paris residence that Rilke enjoyed his greatest poetic activity. In 1919 he went to Switzerland where he spent the last years of his life. It was there that he wrote his last two works, Duino Elegies (1923) and Sonnets to Orpheus (1923).

paperback. No Jacket. New York. 1990. Random House. 1st Edition of This Translation. Very Good in Slightly Worn Wrappers. 0679732454. Translated from the German by Stephen Mitchell. Introduction by William H. Gass. 280 pages. paperback. Cover illustration by John Martinez. keywords: Europe Germany Czech Literature Translated Poetry World Literature. DESCRIPTION - 'So this is where people come to live; I would have thought it is a city to die ml So begins Rilke's only novel, the brief, haunting NOTEBOOKS OF MALTE LAURIDS BRIGGE. First published in 1910, it has proven to be one of the most influential and enduring works of fiction of our century-an instance of lyric expression unmatched in modern prose. Malte Laurids Brigge is a young Danish nobleman and poet living in Paris, Obsessed with death and with the reality that lurks behind appearances, l3rigge muses on his family and their history and on the teeming, alien life he sees in the city around him. In writing his novel, Rilke drew on his own years in the French capital from 1902-3, and from 1905-9 when he was working for l3odin and writing the revolutionary work collected in New Poems. Many of the themes and images that occur in his poetry can also be found in the densely packed, resonant pages of the novel, which prefigures the modernist movement in its self-awareness and imagistic immediacy As Rilke wrote after the book was published, 'Poor Malte begins so deep in misery and, in a strict sense, reaches to eternal bliss; he is a heart that strikes a whole octave: after him almost all songs are possible.' Stephen Mitchell, whose THE SELECTED POETRY OF RAINER MARIA RILKE has been universally praised as one of the most inspired poetic translations to have appeared in years, has produced a powerfully fluent contemporary version of this great book which will make it available to a whole new generation of readers. inventory #48158 Very Good in Slightly Worn Wrappers.
