Overview of The Land of Cards: Stories, Poems and Plays for Children Book

Poet, novelist, painter, musician and Nobel Laureate, Rabindranath Tagore was one of modern India s greatest literary figures. This collection brings together some of his best works poems, short stories and plays in one volume. Be it the wit, magic and lyricism of his poetry or the vividly etched social milieu of his stories, or the sheer power and vibrancy of his plays, Tagore s versatility and unceasing creativity come alive in these writings. The title play The Land of Cards is a satire against the bondage of orthodox rules, while in The Post Office , a child suffocated by his confined existence dreams of freedom in the world outside. From a son s cherished desire to protect his mother in the poem Hero to a fruit-seller longing for his daughter faraway in the story Kabuliwala , Tagore s works convey his humanism and his deep understanding of human relationships.
