Rec | LETTERS TO A YOUNG POET-RILKE

A series of hopeful letters about love, art, purpose and life to a young 20-something cadet by mesmerizing writer Rilke. This man. He lived in the 1900's but it feels like he is talking directly to you. So personal, so intimate and emotional. Beautiful poetic writing, combined with heart-warming advice you'll find yourself thinking of everyday.
