Rustic"We read Rilke for his poetry and his prose, for his novel The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge and for the hundreds, if not thousands, of letters he left, although there also seems to be another important reason: in our view, his is in himself the best example of a modern artist's life and perhaps the purest and perfect model in his indefatigable quest for beauty ... Unlike Goethe, more than an inescapable representative of his time, Rilke was an elegant question mark in the margin of history.
