In the Company of Rilke: Why a 20th-Century Visionary Poet Speaks So Eloquently to 21st-Century Readers yearning for inwardness, beauty & spiritual connection by Dowrick, Stephanie - 2009

Allen &? Unwin, Crows Nest, 2009. First Edition. Softcover. Very Good Condition. Second-hand copy, there is no damage, no annotations, no underlining.Astonishingly, this is the first major study of Rilke from a spiritual perspective, yet the greatest of Rilke's gifts was to show how inevitably life centres upon a profound mystery to which we can freely open ourselves. Drawing on her own deep understanding of the gifts of reading, as well as her personal spiritual seeking, Stephanie Dowrick offers an intimate understanding of this most exceptional poet and his transcendent, piercingly beautiful work. – Rear panel blurb Full number line.
