"Who are you after all, Rainer? Not German, although — a whole Germany! Not Czech, although born in Czechia (NB! in a country that did not yet exist, — that fits!), not Austrian, because Austria was, and you — will be! Isn't it wonderful? You — have no homeland!" — wrote Marina Tsvetaeva to Rainer Maria Rilke. But the poet did have a homeland after all: not only that ineffable and eternal realm of being to which poetry has always aspired, but also the fading old Europe, where "all the color, all the rot of Empires" converged. In love with Russia, tender, broken, and passionate, Rainer Maria Rilke became one of the most important poets of the 20th century. The collection "German Classics in Translations by Vladimir Letuchiy" opens with a collection of Rilke's brilliant prose — from the novel "The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge" to prose-poems and the melancholic parables of "Stories of the Beloved God".
