In these audacious poems, a devout but candid speaker addresses an ultimately unknowable deity, passing through love, fear, guilt, anger, bewilderment, loneliness, tenderness, and exaltation in his search for meaning.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn this dual-language edition, Edward Snow, \"the most trustworthy and exhilarating of Rilke's contemporary translators\" (Michael Dirda, Washington Post), makes Rilke's achievement accessible as never before in English.
