About the author
Rainer Maria Rilke
1,807 books6,964 followersA mystic lyricism and precise imagery often marked verse of German poet Rainer Maria Rilke, whose collections profoundly influenced 20th-century German literature and include
The Book of Hours
(1905) and
The Duino Elegies
(1923).
People consider him of the greatest 20th century users of the language.
His haunting images tend to focus on the difficulty of communion with the ineffable in an age of disbelief, solitude, and profound anxiety — themes that tend to position him as a transitional figure between the traditional and the modernist poets.
His two most famous sequences include the Sonnets to Orpheus , and his most famous prose works include the Letters to a Young Poet and the semi-autobiographical The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge .
He also wrote more than four hundred poems in French, dedicated to the canton of Valais in Switzerland, his homeland of choice.

Einige der Erzählungen gefielen mir besser als andere, die kleine Sammlung eignet sich gut für zwischendurch und regt zum Nachdenken an, da die Texte oft relativ kurz gehalten wurden.
Obwohl mich der religiöse Unterton mancher Geschichten stört, lässt sich überall eine kleine Anekdote für das eigene Leben finden.
Am liebsten mochte ich "Der Totengräber" und "Samskola"!
