SYLVIE

This handbound booklet features Rainer Maria Rilke’s poem “Pathways” in flowing typography:
Understand, I'll slip quietly
away from the noisy crowd
when I see the pale
stars rising, blooming, over the oaks.
I'll pursue solitary pathways
through the pale twilit meadows, with only this one dream:
You come too.
