Aufzeichnungen Des Malte Laurids Brigge

Aufzeichnungen des Malte Laurids Brigge

by Rainer Maria Rilke

Malte Laurids Brigge, a young Danish poet, arrives in Paris at the turn of the 20th century. As he wanders the city, he records his observations and reflections in a series of diary entries. Malte's entries are full of despair and anxiety as he struggles to find his place in the world. He is haunted by thoughts of death, sickness, and poverty. He is also deeply critical of the society he sees around him, which he believes is materialistic and soulless. Despite his despair, Malte is also a keen observer of the beauty of the world. He finds solace in art and nature, and he is drawn to the lives of the poor and marginalized.
