Possibility and Loss in the Poetry of Rainer Maria Rilke (Part 2)
Subtext: Conversations about Classic Books and Films - A podcast by Wes Alwan and Erin O'Luanaigh - Mondays
Wes & Erin continue their discussion of Rainer Maria Rilke's “You Who Never Arrived" and “Be Ahead of All Parting” (II.13 from his “Sonnets to Orpheus”), and whether—as Rilke suggests—death can be put in service of life, and suffering sourced as the principal wellspring of a joyful existence.
