{"product_id":"letters-to-a-young-poet-2","title":"Letters to a Young Poet","description":"Introducing Little Clothbound Classics: irresistible, mini editions of short stories, novellas and essays from the world's greatest writers, designed by the award-winning Coralie Bickford-Smith. Celebrating the range and diversity of Penguin Classics, they take us from snowy Japan to springtime Vienna, from haunted New England to a sun-drenched Mediterranean island, and from a game of chess on the ocean to a love story on the moon. Beautifully designed and printed, these collectible editions are bound in colourful, tactile cloth and stamped with foil. Over the course of six years, Maria Rilke wrote a series of letters to a young officer cadet, advising him on writing, love, suffering and the nature of advice itself; these profound and lyrical letters have since become hugely influential for writers and artists of all kinds. This volume also contains the 'Letter from a Young Worker', a striking polemic against Christianity written too in letter form.\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eAuthor: Rilke, Rainer Maria,author,Louth, Charlie,translator\u003cbr\u003eContributors: Rilke, Rainer Maria,author,Louth, Charlie,translator\u003cbr\u003eBinding: hardcover\u003cbr\u003ePublication Date: \u003cbr\u003eRelease Date: \u003cbr\u003eLanguages: English,Published,German,Original Language,English\u003cbr\u003eEdition: 1\u003cbr\u003ePublished\/Release Date: 23 Feb 2023\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Hardback\u003cbr\u003ePublisher\/Studio\/Brand: Penguin Books Ltd\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Director\/Artist: Rainer Maria Rilke\u003cbr\u003eDimension (cm): 169x116x16 mm\u003cbr\u003ePackage Dimension (cm): 18x168x116 mm\u003cbr\u003eItem Weight (g): 158\u003cbr\u003ePackage Weight (g): 160","brand":"Penguin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50660180230441,"sku":"BK0241620031","price":57.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/5868\/0105\/files\/9780241620038_acd71dc9-763d-42b4-81ea-348cee721701.jpg?v=1786289537","url":"https:\/\/www.centloop.com\/en-au\/products\/letters-to-a-young-poet-2","provider":"Centloop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
