Sonnets to Orpheus Book Reviews
Sonnets to Orpheus by Rainer Maria Rilke Book Summary
Translated by Martyn Crucefix
In 55 sonnets Rainer Maria Rilke plays an astonishing
set of philosophical and sensual variations on the
Orpheus myth. 'Praising, that's it!' he declares; nature,
art, love, time, childhood, technology, poverty, justice -
all are encompassed in poems that spark with insight
and invention, among the most joyful and light-footed
that Rilke ever wrote.
'All poetry resists translation, and one poem may have many different versions in another language; what I look for first is clarity, and this version supplies that generously. With the presence of the German text and Crucefix's helpful notes, the English-speaking reader with little or no German will find in this version a welcoming entrance to the path which leads eventually to a full understanding - if a full understanding of this mysterious poetry is ever possible. Crucefix's translation will have, and keep, a place on my shelves where all the poetry lives.'
