Called the Song Offerings, the Gitanjali is the culmination of Rabindranath Tagore's literary prowess and the greatest achievement of his poetic legacy.
Summary of the Book
Encompassing a praise of nature, the Gitanjali celebrates spiritualism and the beauty of the world for all to see. First written in Bengali and later translated into English for a larger audience, these poems touch upon a single poet's praise for the world in all its glory. The song itself is the offering he makes for nature and in it, one finds sublime messages of spiritualism, devotion and gratitude.
About Rabindranath Tagore
Rabindranath Tagore was an Indian poet, writer, philosopher and politician. His writings are considered the epitome of Bengali literature and several of his short stories and novels have been translated into many languages and have subsequently been adapted into hit movies. He is best remembered for: Gora, Kabuliwallah, The Home And The World and Choker Bali.
He was the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize for Literature, largely for the English translation of the Gitanjali. He was also conferred a knighthood by the British Empire which he renounced to protest against the Jallianwalla Bagh Massacre.
