About the Book
Quartet (Chaturanga) by Rabindranath Tagore is a profound exploration of the complexities of human relationships, philosophy, and spirituality. Set in 19th century Bengal, this First Edition paperback translation brings a contemporary touch to one of Tagore's most metaphorical and philosophical novellas.
The novella revolves around four central characters—three men and one woman—and delves into their intricate dynamics, exploring themes of religion, atheism, and the multifaceted nature of human emotions. The protagonist, Sachis, is portrayed as a deeply tormented soul, caught between his natural human desires and the imposed spiritual quest for emancipation. The story thus explores the tension between the physical and the spiritual, the form and the formless.
Tagore’s delicate psychological portrayals and subtle character interpretations draw the reader into an introspective journey, moving from the external to the internal realms of the human mind. With its thought-provoking narrative and profound insights into the subconscious, Quartet successfully captures Tagore’s unique style, blending playfulness with profound depth, making this translation an essential read for anyone interested in the complexities of human relationships and Tagore’s unmatched literary genius.
