Biographie de l'auteur

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.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The protagonists of this classic Tagore novella, set in early 19th century Bengal, are the warring families of the Chatterjees and the Ghoshals. In this setting, the old rivalry manifests itself as a historical clash between a landed aristocracy declining under the Permanent Settlement system introduced by the British, and the newly rising comprador bourgeosie patronized by these very colonial masters.
