The Notebook of Malte Laurids Brigge

Más información sobre el libro

Exploring themes of alienation, longing, and the inevitability of death, this semi-autobiographical novel captures the introspective journey of its protagonist in the vibrant yet isolating backdrop of Paris. Written in an expressionistic style, it intertwines childhood memories with profound reflections, including elements from the Parable of the Prodigal Son. As Rilke's sole significant prose work, it offers a deep and personal insight into the human experience.
