    Rilke's Book of HoursPreface by Joanna Macy Preface by Anita Barrows Introduction Notes on the Translation The Book of a Monastic Life The Book of Pilgrimmage The Book of Poverty and Death Commentary
    Synopsis
    At the beginning of this century, a young German poet returned from a journey to Russia, where he had immersed himself in the spirituality he discovered there. He "received" a series of poems about which he did not speak for a long time - he considered them sacred, and different from anything else he ever had done and ever would do again. This poet saw the coming darkness of the century, and saw the struggle we would have in our relationship to the divine. The poet was Rainer Maria Rilke, and these love poems to God make up his Book of Hours.
