From the writer of the classic Letters to a Young Poet, reflections on grief and loss, collected and published here in one volume for the first time.

A great poet's reflections on our greatest mystery.--Billy Collins

A treasure . . . The solace Rilke offers is uncommon, uplifting and necessary.--The Guardian

Gleaned from Rainer Maria Rilke's voluminous, never-before-translated letters to bereaved friends and acquaintances, The Dark Interval is a profound vision of the mourning process and a meditation on death's place in our lives. Following the format of Letters to a Young Poet, this book arranges Rilke's letters into an uninterrupted sequence, showcasing the full range of the great author's thoughts on death and dying, as well as his sensitive and moving expressions of consolation and condolence.

Presented with care and authority by master translator Ulrich Baer, The Dark Interval is a literary treasure, an indispensable resource for anyone searching for solace, comfort, and meaning in a time of grief.
