"Letters to a Young Poet" by Rainer Maria Rilke is indeed a collection of letters that a young person, aspiring to write, was penning to him regarding life, art, and work whereby one may commit the whole life. Today, people may hold these letters high as poetic literature teemed with the voice of wisdom and advice – if not candor in performing and speaking – like a real mentor for any artist or thinker on a journey to find his own truth and create something, in one word, valuable.
