In Paris in 1902, renowned sculptor Auguste Rodin had just completed The Thinker; visiting from Prague was the delicate Rainer Maria Rilke, broke and with writers block. When Rilke was commissioned to write a book about Rodin, everything changed. You Must Change Your Life tells one of the great stories of modern art and literature: Rodin and Rilkes years together as master and disciple, their heartbreaking rift, and finally their moving reconciliation. In a vibrant debut, Rachel Corbett reveals how Rodins friendship led Rilke to write his most celebrated poems and inspired his beloved Letters to a Young Poet. She captures the dawn of Modernism amid the fascinating characters that made up Rilke and Rodins circle, including Paul Cezanne, Henri Matisse, Lou Andreas -Salome, George Bernard Shaw and Jean Cocteau. And she recounts the remarkable friendship of two extraordinary artists whose work continues to reverberate a century later.
