Plassey: The Battle That Changed The Course Of Indian History
Poems from Puravi the Child invites readers into Rabindranath Tagore's contemplative world through seven translations that capture the essence of childhood. This collection, translated by Kshitis Roy, the former curator of the Tagore Museum in Shantiniketan, offers a fresh, accessible doorway into Tagore's enduring themes of longing, innocence, and growing up. Perfect for poetry lovers, Tagore enthusiasts, and readers of all ages, Poems from Puravi the Child carries a gentle, reflective tone that invites quiet wonder and personal introspection.
Within Poems from Puravi the Child, each poem is drawn from Tagore's celebrated works and presented in translation to preserve rhythm and feeling while offering clear, approachable language. The experience is rhythmic and immersive, with moments of whimsy, ache, and revelation that readers can savor slowly. The collection also highlights the craft of translation itself—how language can carry a child's perspective across time—while keeping accessibility at the forefront. For fans of Tagore, the book offers a unique lens on his portrayal of childhood, and for new readers, it provides an inviting entry point into his poetry. The translations include Puranata – Fulfilment, Videshi Phul – Foreign Flower, Antarhita – The Phantom, Asamka – Faint Heart, Shesh Vasanta – The Last Spring, Badal – The Exchange, and The Postscript, adapted from Sheshekha – The Last Writing (1941), broadening the emotional range and pace of the collection. Notably, The Child (1931), Tagore's sole major poem written in English, stands out as a bridge to his Bengali translations, making Poems from Puravi the Child a meaningful read for both devoted readers and curious newcomers.
