He would become one of the most important poets of the twentieth century; she was the �ber-muse of Europe's turn-of-the-century thinkers and artists. In this never-before-translated collection of letters spanning almost thirty years, the poet Rainer Maria Rilke and Lou Andreas-Salom�, a writer and intellectual fourteen years his senior, pen a relationship that moves from that of lovers to that of mentor and prot�g�, to that of deepest personal and literary allies. From the time of their first meeting and consequent affair to Rilke's death in 1926, Rilke and Salom� reeled through extremes of love, pain, annoyance, desire, and need-yet guided each other in one of the most fruitful artistic exchanges in twentieth-century literature.
