Rosie Beveridge ，

I never want to be without it

Donovan ，

An amazing new translation that will quickly become the standard English version。 I loved his letters and as I read his simple， yet profound， wisdom it just took me back to my childhood and writing letters， a practice I continued well into my adulthood。 Truly letter were an amazing form of communication。 At one point Rilke writes that his hand is tired from all of the letters he had written that day。 It amazes me that he just quickly pounded these out。 No edits， no rereads over time。 This transl An amazing new translation that will quickly become the standard English version。 I loved his letters and as I read his simple， yet profound， wisdom it just took me back to my childhood and writing letters， a practice I continued well into my adulthood。 Truly letter were an amazing form of communication。 At one point Rilke writes that his hand is tired from all of the letters he had written that day。 It amazes me that he just quickly pounded these out。 No edits， no rereads over time。 This translate truly brings these letters to life。 Highly recommend。 。。。more
