'An indescribable, aching, futile longing for myself'

The young Danish aristocrat Malte Laurids Brigge has been left rootless by the early death of his parents. Now living in Paris, Malte begins to record his life in a series of loosely connected notes, diary entries, prose poems, parables and stories, ostensibly collected by a fictional editor to form the Notebooks. Focusing on Malte's observations and experiences in the present, recollections of his childhood and family, and his reflections on historical events, these notes in highly crafted poetic prose explore the themes of life in the metropolis, poverty, sickness and death, love, memory and time, and perception and language.

The only extended prose work by the German poet Rainer Maria Rilke, The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge is a landmark in the development of the twentieth-century novel. It marks a radical departure from nineteenth-century realism, transcending conventions of linear narrative to reflect a consciousness in crisis, and an archetypal confrontation with the modern.

ABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

A Timeless and Stylish Pea Coat - Perfect for Winter!
Size: X-Large, Color: Wine Red
The quality of this pea coat is exceptional. The wool blend material feels soft and luxurious, and the craftsmanship is evident in every stitch. The coat is well-constructed and designed to withstand the test of time. I have been wearing it throughout the winter season, and it has kept me warm and cozy even during the coldest days. The classic double-breasted design of the coat is timeless and versatile. It adds a touch of sophistication to any outfit, whether I'm wearing it for a formal event or a casual day out. The notched collar enhances the coat's elegance and provides a polished look. The fit of the coat is excellent. The sizing chart provided by the seller was accurate, and the coat fits me perfectly. The tailored cut gives it a flattering silhouette without feeling restrictive. It allows for comfortable layering, so I can wear sweaters or jackets underneath without any issues. One of the standout features of this pea coat is its attention to detail. The buttons are well-placed and secure, and the lining is smooth and comfortable against the skin. The deep pockets are a great addition and provide ample space for storing essentials like gloves or a phone.

Excellent Product!!!

Must buy item. I would buy a coat for every color they offer. The coat has four large pockets, two exterior and two interior pockets. All of which are large.

Really nice for the price!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Brown, Size: XX-Large, Color: Brown
This jacket is a really nice find for the price, my bf is 6’4, 350 and the XXL fit really well. It was a little tight in the bicep but other than that it fit well in the chest and in the waist. It falls just below the belt. It was really nicely made and I ended up wearing it at the end of the night (due to not bringing my own jacket in December in the snow) and it kept me pretty warm and was really nice and cozy! So if you’re looking for a pea coat / trench coat that isn’t $500 then definitely buy this one!

Almost great! But falls a little short
Size: Large, Color: Wine Red
It’s a great looking pea coat, but the stuffing/insulating material appeared to be lacking. Granted price is nice so one can only expect so much. I was willing to overlook this and then I tried it on - the fit was great except for the sleeves. I wear 32-33 sleeves and these must be 35-36. They swallow up my hands. It’s bummer because the maroon/wine color is so nice. I’ll be returning unfortunately

Great quality :-)
Size: X-Large, Color: Black, Size: X-Large, Color: Black
So I purchased a Nother pea coat from a box store that didn’t quite fit right and was not very flattering, so I returned it. I’m 6 foot tall 210 pounds with very wide shoulders and long arms so I decided to get an extra large. It’s slightly loose around the waist section, but I think that’s supposed to be that way considering you may wanna wear layers underneath. I may possibly get it tailored a little bit tired her, but the chest and arms fit great and the length is perfect. Great quality for the price and definitely a nice piece to the collection!
