A fictionalized Rilke as a young man, dealing with issues of psychosis, genius and creativity. The blurring of 1) subjective impressions, fears, and memories with 2) the objective, narrative reality is constant throughout, such that, no reality exists outside of the head of our eloquent, troubled and fascinating protagonist. Great read for artists, architects, and any creative types.
