Gitanjali (Song Offerings) by Rabindranath Tagore

Gitanjali in English translation (1911) is a volume of 103 poems selected by Tagore from his several Bengali books of poetry. It was when he learned from William Rothenstein of western interest in them that he translated them into English. Chiefly for this volume, Tagore became the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913. This 1928 MacMillan & Hardback is in fair condition. No DJ; Owner's Name inside. Red boards with gold lettering on spine; cover worn and bumped on edges; foxing to text block edges.
