MOTHER, today there comes back to mind the vermilionmark at the parting of your hair, the __sari__ which youused to wear, with its wide red border, and those wonderfuleyes of yours, full of depth and peace. They came atthe start of my life’s journey, like the first streak of dawn,giving me golden provision to carry me on my way.The sky which gives light is blue, and my mother’sface was dark, but she had the radiance of holiness, and herbeauty would put to shame all the vanity of the beautiful.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - The novel is set against the backdrop of the Partition of Bengal in 1905. It was Lord Curzon's most unpopular measure, and sparked off a public outcry and protests by the people of Bengal. Rabindranath Tagore's Home and the World played a pivotal role in providing leadership to the movement against the Partition. The movement developed into a call for swaraj or self-rule centering on the use of swadeshi or Indian made goods. Tagore however was to distance himself from the Swadeshi movement after the outbreak of communal riots in Bengal in 1907. Seller Inventory # 9789387488113
