| 500 ## - GENERAL NOTE | |
| General note | The novel explores the man behind the legend.<br/><br/>Tagore: A Novel is a fictionalized retelling of Rabindranath Tagore’s life and times.<br/><br/>Sahitya Akademi awardee K.C. Ajayakumar unravels the mind of an incomparable visionary and<br/>genius in this book by exploring how the sensory impressions from Tagore’s early days shaped<br/>his creative ideation; how his boyhood experiences and beliefs reflected in his writings; how his<br/>complete and unapologetic immersion in everyday life played out against his lifelong obsession<br/>with death; and how his unbelievably multifaceted sensibility came alive through his literature,<br/>music, theatre and painting.<br/><br/>This book not only examines the virtuosity of Tagore through his highly acclaimed works but also<br/>charts his rise to international fame and his friendship with William Rothenstein and William Butler<br/>Yeats. It presents an intimate account of his contentious relationships with Swami Vivekananda,<br/>Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, Sri Aurobindo, Bankim Chandra Chattopadhyay, among others.<br/>Tagore’s ever-debated, ambivalent and enigmatic engagement with Mahatma Gandhi is also captured<br/>brilliantly in the book. His love for Shelaidaha, Patisar, Jorasanko Thakurbadi, Shantiniketan and<br/>the river Padma is portrayed beautifully.<br/><br/>This is the story of a man like no other. |
