When, earlier, a lot of Bananafishies discussed Rilke I got a little curious
about his poetry and picked up a translation by Edward Snow entitled
'Uncollected Poems'- hundreds of unpublished and uncollected poetry. It has
the original German poem aside of the English translation, and I must say,
Rilke is one of my favorite poets now. I believe it was he who Seymour talked
about in 'A Perfect Day for Bananafish'-when Muriel was looking for the
German poetry book Seymour gave her. Unfortunatly, the book does not have
'Sonnets to Orpheus' in it...just as well. = )
