The Home and the World - Tagore

Rabindranath Tagore was the most significant literary figure of Bengali literature. As a poet, novelist, musician, and playwright, Tagore reshaped Bengali literature and music in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. "The Home and the World" is a novel from 1916 that illustrates the struggle Tagore had within himself, between Western cultural ideas and the revolution against those very ideas. The work was a great success worldwide and was among those selected in a list by "The Telegraph" as one of the top 10 greatest Asian novels of all time. A highly noteworthy achievement, though not extraordinary for a writer who, in 1915, was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.
