Description
This collection combines some of Tagore's more popular stories like 'The Cabuliwallah' with lesser known ones like 'The Son of Rashmani', all of them bound together by a common theme: human fallibility.
Tagore impartially delineates the mistakes of his characters, their impulsive generosity and even their unthinking cruelty towards their fellow beings. And yet they retain a sincerity which Tagore believed was the essential characteristic of the human spirit. A master of the short story genre, Tagore draws his characters with such accuracy that the reader gains an insight into life as it is.
