The Home and the World

The Home and the World is the English translation of Ghare-Baire (1919). The story revolves around the life of three protagonists ─ Nikhilesh, a wealthy and well-educated gentleman, his young wife Bimala, and his fiery friend Sandip, a fearless Swadeshi fighter. Bimala, influenced by Sandip, abandons her customary role as a wife and begins to break free from her confining environment. But her transition comes at a great cost. Written at the time when India was still under the rule of the British Empire, the novel deliberates on the politics of its time. A clash of views for then and future India makes this novel an important read even today.
