The poems selected in this volume give us the essence of the magic of Tagore`s poetry. Translated by the poet himself, they recreate a romantic vision of the divine truth. They intricately weave the sacred with the secular. Some are tales in verse with a rare delicacy of feelings. Some are dreamy and symbolic of the poet`s mood.
One of India`s most cherished renaissance figures, Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) put India on the literary map of the world when his Gitanjali was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1913. Myriad-minded, he was a poet, short story writer, novelist, dramatist, essayist, painter and composer of songs. His worldwide acclaim as a social, political, religious and aesthetic thinker, innovator in education and a champion of the `One World` idea makes him a living presence. ISBN - 9788171677115
