🔽 Book review and notes 🔽
I have read about how great Tagore's works are, but until you read them, experience them, you don't really know, of course.
There are many of "selected works of" kind of books, this one is from Fingerprint in India.
These stories vary in the theme or genre, might be a love story, or a ghost story, or about family or friendship.
It shows how expansive his talent is, but more significantly his stories are about honest, humble, and poor people.
That is why after more than 100 years they do not get old and continue to touch people all over Bengal, India, Asia and beyond.
Some stories stand out more than others to me, like "The river stairs", "The Cabuliwalla", "The son of Rashimani", "The master Mashai" "Living or Dead", "Fair neighbour"
