Book Mine: The Rats' Feast - A Tagore Omnibus

A dry-fruit seller from Kabul, with a heart of molten gold and a fist of iron. Escapades of naughty schoolboys travelling on a train with an unusual teacher. The decisive battle of skill and oratory between two poets in a king’s court. The everyday joys and sadness of a sick boy who sees the world through a half-open window of hope. A bemusing world of Cards, based on rules and class divides. Morning and night, life and death, poverty and riches, working girls and growing boys... everything touched Rabindranath Tagore’s mind and heart and flowed into writing through his magical, unstoppable pen.
