About The Book:
Geetanjali, originally written by the Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore, is a collection of 103 Bengali poems, translated into Marathi in this edition by Amita Gosavi. The book, first published in 1910 in Bengali and in 1912 in English, earned Tagore the prestigious Nobel Prize for Literature. The title "Geetanjali" translates to ‘Song Offerings’, and the poems are imbued with profound metaphysical themes, focusing on spirituality, life, and the quest for union with the Supreme Being.

The poems are deeply reflective of Tagore’s philosophical views on life, expressing the mystery, melancholy, and vibrancy of existence. His words transcend time and space, inviting readers to explore the connection between the physical world and the spiritual realm.

Rabindranath Tagore, born in 1861, was not only a poet but also a novelist, essayist, song composer, playwright, and painter. He revolutionized Bengali and Indian literature, earning worldwide acclaim for his contributions to literature and music. In addition to Geetanjali, his renowned works include The Home and the World, The Post Office, Chokher Bali, Kabuliwala, and many others.

This Marathi translation brings Tagore’s timeless words closer to readers, offering them a glimpse into the beauty and depth of his literary and philosophical legacy.
