      "The extraordinary story of one of the most fruitful friendships in modern arts and letters. Paris, 1902: Renowned sculptor Auguste Rodin has just completed The Thinker. Rainer Maria Rilke is a delicate young visitor from Prague, broke and suffering from a case of writer's block. When Rilke is commissioned to write a book about Rodin, everything changes. ... You Must Change Your Life reveals one of the great stories of modern art and literature: Rodin and Rilke's years together as master and disciple, their heartbreaking rift, and ultimately their moving reconciliation. In her vibrant debut, Rachel Corbett reveals how Rodin's influence led Rilke to write his most celebrated poems and inspired his beloved Letters to a Young Poet. She captures the dawn of modernism with appearances by Paul Cézanne, Henri Matisse, Lou Andreas-Salomé, George Bernard Shaw, and Jean Cocteau. And she recounts the remarkable friendship of two extraordinary artists whose work continues to reverberate a century later."--

      You Must Change Your Life
    • Příběh Rainera Maria Rilkeho a Auguste Rodina. Autorka románu píše s ohromným zápalem a pochopením příběh počátku modernismu v Paříži na přelomu 19. a 20. století a splétá osudy dvou velikánů umění. Příběh, v němž vystupují charismatické postavy, jakými byl Paul Cézanne, Henri Matisse, či George Bernard Shaw. Corbettová buduje podrobnou, barvitou mozaiku životů dvou umělců, založenou na důkladném průzkumu a prostoupenou úvahami o podstatě umění a tvoření – úvahami, jimiž mohou Rilke s Rodinem inspirovat i současnou generaci. Obsahuje 22 fotografických ilustrací.
