Paperback. Condition: Good. Gora (1910) is Rabindranath Tagore's fifth novel and is widely regarded as his masterpiece. Exploring the social, cultural, religious, and political life of nineteenth-century urban middle-class Bengal, it stands as a landmark in the history of the Bengali novel. The story reflects Tagore's own transition from Hindu revivalism to universal brotherhood, nationalism to internationalism, and rigid Brahmanism to a more humanistic spirituality. The novel was translated into English by W.W. Pearson in 1924. More than just a novel, Gora is an epic portrayal of India in a period of profound change, capturing the intellectual awakening and social upheaval experienced by the new intelligentsia. No other work offers such a masterful analysis of India's complex social fabric, with its deep contradictions, or the character of Indian nationalism--rooted in resurgent Hinduism yet reaching toward universal humanism. Despite the extensive philosophical debates inherent to its themes, Tagore skillfully maintains a compelling narrative that keeps readers engaged until the very end. Seller Inventory # CIN817167755XG
