Rabindranath Tagore pubblicò il suo primo volume di poesie all'età di tredici anni. Divenne una figura di spicco nella letteratura bengalese e mondiale. Tagore fu straordinariamente produttivo nel corso della sua lunga vita; le sue opere complete riempiono 32 grandi volumi e includono 60 raccolte di versi e più di 2.000 canzoni, due delle quali sono diventate gli inni nazionali dell'India e del Bangladesh. Sia nella sua poesia che nella sua prosa fu un grande innovatore, rompendo continuamente con la tradizione, cambiando all'infinito il suo stile, quindi questo volume è pieno di varietà e sorpresa. Se la poesia lirica era l'ancora della creatività di Tagore, scrisse anche versi devozionali, satirici, umoristici e persino senza senso. I suoi temi erano vari quanto le sue forme: amore, la bellezza della natura; filosofia, politica, le sue speranze e paure per il suo paese e per il futuro dell'umanità. Nella sua narrativa mostrò profonda simpatia per le prospettive delle donne, dei bambini e dei poveri. Questa selezione, consistente di oltre 900 pagine, offre una panoramica rappresentativa del suo lavoro, tra cui il suo romanzo più noto, The Home and the World, e la sua opera teatrale più nota, Red Oleander, oltre a molti racconti, novelle, saggi, poesie e canzoni. Rudrangshu Mukherjee ha attinto al lavoro di vari traduttori, dalle prime interpretazioni di Surendranath Tagore, nipote dell'autore, a quelle moderne di William Radice, Kaiser Haq e Madhuchchhanda Karlekar. Tagore ha tradotto personalmente alcune delle sue opere e tutti i saggi e le lezioni sono stati composti in inglese.

He went on to become a towering figure in Bengali and world literature.Tagore was remarkably productive over his long life; his complete works fill 32 large volumes and include 60 collections of verse and more than 2,000 songs, two of which have become the national anthems of India and of Bangladesh. In both his poetry and prose he was a great innovator, continually breaking with tradition, endlessly changing his own style, so this volume is full of variety and surprise. If lyric poetry was the anchor of Tagore's creativity, he also wrote devotional, satirical, humorous and even nonsense verse.His themes were as varied as his forms - love, the beauty of nature; philosophy, politics, his hopes and fears for his country, and for the future of mankind. In his fiction he showed profound sympathy for the perspectives of women, children and the poor. This selection - a substantial 900+ pages - offers a representative overview of his work, including his best-known novel, The Home and the World, and his best-known play, Red Oleander, as well as many short stories, novellas, essays, poems and songs.Rudrangshu Mukherjee has drawn on the work of various translators, from early renderings by Surendranath Tagore, the author's nephew, to modern ones by William Radice, Kaiser Haq and Madhuchchhanda Karlekar.
