The Sugared Doll- Khirer Putul
Author: Abanindranath Tagore
Publisher: Doshor Publication
ISBN: 8195334946
Category : Antiques & Collectibles
Languages : en
Pages : 82
Book Description
Abanindranath once said that writing for children is one of the most strenuous tasks to undertake. The author actualises this through the symbolic functionality of the absurd in a child’s world. Abanindranath’s poetic mastery gets amplified in his attempt to bring Khirer Putul to the credibility of his child reader. When Abanindranath paints poetry in Khirer Putul in undertaking the difficult task of delighting children, he does it with extreme artistry.

Fantasy Fictions from the Bengal Renaissance
Author: Abanindranath Tagore
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199092176
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
Fantasy Fictions from the Bengal Renaissance presents two masterpieces of Bengali literature by Rabindranath Tagore’s nephews, Abanindranath Tagore and Gaganendranath Tagore. The Make-Believe Prince is the delightful story of a king, his two wives, a trickster monkey, a witch, and a helper from another world who is not a ‘fairy godmother’. Abanindranath deploys traditional children’s rhymes and paints exquisite word-pictures in his original rendering of a tale which has its roots in Bengali folktale materials in various genres. Toddy-Cat the Bold sees a group of brave comrades seek help from a young boy to rescue the son of their leader from the Two-Faced Rakshasa of the forest. Here, a more numinous supernatural helper appears. Inspired by Lewis Carroll’s Alice books, it presents a comic, exciting, and mysterious journey quite unlike Carroll’s, with many traditional local touches and an unexpected ending.
