  • Notes: For this work, Kent has quoted the Austrian poet and novelist Rainer Maria Rilke's "Letters to a Young Poet": Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves do not now seek the answers, that cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them and the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer.
  • Condition: Overall toning. Some scattered and unobtrusive surface skinning and creasing showing in the margins. Not examined out of the frame.
