Este sfârșitul anului 1932. Trei prieteni reuniți la faimoasa cafenea Bec-de-Gaz de pe rue Montparnasse din Paris dezbat aprins în timp ce își sorb cocktailul de caise.

Das existenziell-philosophische Lebensverständnis Rilkes in enger Verbindung mit Bildern seines Lebens anzudeuten, soll in diesem Hörbuch versucht sein.
