East/West: Gandhi/Tagore,
By A Customer
This review is from: Rabindranath Tagore: The Myriad-Minded Man (Hardcover)
Worth seeking out, warranting reprinting, this is a dense, substantial, but readible biography, less concerned with literary criticism than with the psychological dynamics and political realities of Tagore's creative life. Ultimately, it is about East and West, which is to say, about Tagore the globalist who sought integration of east and west, as contrasted with Gandhi, the nationalist. Tagore believed that the human condition was first of all cultural, Gandhi regarded it as first of all political. This is a comprehensive but penetrating study not only of Tagore, but of modern India.

One day I was visiting my friend, and he gave me

my childhood, but this relevation was too
captivating... I still wish I have the book
wherever I see myriad flowers .... A must for
a Tagore Fan.
