books by Rabindranath Tagore

 

1.Chokher Bali

2. Broken Ties

 

Both are beautiful books!

 

I cannot even explain how beautiful the story is. Some say the story is partly based on his own life. Not sure about that. But if you want to read more of Tagore, it's a must read.

 

start with his short stories- called Golpoguccho

monihara(the lost jewel). kabuliwala, chuti, shashti(punishment), strir potro( a aletter of a wife) are some of the gems...

Has anyone read Tagore's fireflies? Anyone knows bengali and has read the book?

My friend got the translated version of the book, she wants to know the maxims. The structure of the writing in the book. Since according to her fireflies is inspired by Japanese haiku Tagore translated, she wants to know whether the bengali version of the book has strict form like haiku? Like syllable count etc. 

I hope someone helps out. 🤓
