Summary:"A collection of eighteen short stories that highlight Tagore's profound vision.

Rabindranath Tagore, India's foremost writer and the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize for literature, is perhaps best known for his tender and passionate tales about human yearning and longing. Here then is a collection of eighteen short stories that highlight Tagore's profound vision. The collection begins with The Kabuliwallah, a heartwarming story about the relationship between a father and daughter. In The Postmaster, a young man from Calcutta finds himself adjusting to life in a remote village, and The Hungry Stones, which follows an unlikely encounter at a railway station. Other stories include The Trust Property, The Home-coming, Living or Dead', The Skeleton, My Fair Neighbour, The Babus of Nayanjore, The Child's Return, The Castaway, Subha, The Son of Rashmani, The Devotee, The Auspicious Victim, The Supreme Night, The Riddle Solved and The Renunciation
Un poète du dimanche relégué dans un village se pique d'apprendre à lire à Ratan, l'humble fillette qui le sert ; deux amis se déchirent à cause du citronnier qui sépare leurs jardins ; une petite fille, à peine sait-elle écrire, trace partout ses états d'âme poétiques avec un bout de charbon, sur les murs, le cahier de comptes de son père, les manuscrits de son frère ; une enfant de cinq ans se lie d'amitié avec un colporteur afghan qu'elle rejoint en bas de chez elle dès qu'il passe - Kabuliwallah ! - mais qui un beau matin ne se présente plus... Délicieuses et dramatiques, ces vingt-deux nouvelles, qui se déroulent au coeur du Bengale et de Calcutta, sont d'un inépuisable envoûtement. Rabindranath Tagore s'est engagé toute sa vie pour la reconnaissance des droits universels des peuples et des individus. Il a reçu le prix Nobel de littérature en 1913
