But during this period he was writing verse continually, often prolifically--in letters, in guest books, in presentation copies, and chiefly in the pocket-books he always carried with him. This body of uncollected work exceeds five hundred pieces: finished poems of great poise and brilliance, headlong statements that hurtle through their subjects, haunting \"fragments,\" and short bursts that arc into the unpursuable. A remarkable number of them are among Rilke's finest poems. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eSnow's selection of more than a hundred of these little-known works distills the best of the uncollected poetry while offering a wide enough choice to convey Rilke's variety and industry during the years he wrote them. \u003ci\u003eUncollected Poems\u003c\/i\u003e will lead students, scholars, and other readers to a fresh--and more accurate--understanding of this great poet's life and work.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEdward Snow\u003c\/b\u003e has received the Harold Morton Landon Translation Award and the PEN Award for Poetry in Translation for his many renderings of Rilke.
