description: Rilke's French poems represent an important yet neglected aspect of his vast contribution to literature. These poems shine with the sparkle and depth of precious jewels. Susanne Petermann introduces soulful new versions of two French series by Rilke. In Roses, we experience the infinite metaphor of the rose as Rilke's object of praise and transformation. Windows explores Rilke's fascination with paradox, where inner and outer meet, where limitation and expansion pull simultaneously on our lives.
