An evening with Rilke

I want to be with those who know secret things or else alone." - RMR

Join other members of the Boston Poetry Union meetup group as we read Rilke aloud and talk about the themes and pleasures of his poetry.

The evening will begin with a quick explication of one of Rilke's short poems by one of the organizers; after that, we'll break into open conversation, where members can read their favorite poems aloud (in English or German), or give their own explications, or just talk casually with other lovers of Rilke.

No prior experience with Rilke is necessary; reading packets will be available for free to all who attend.
