Just finished reading "Home and the World" by Rabindranath Tagore, my first of this great man of literature from India. It was made as a well known movie called "Ghare Bhaire" by another famous son of India Satyajit Ray. This book narrates the story from the eyes of three protagonists and from that point of view is slow to get into. About little more than half way through, the narrative picks up pace and Tagore with his dramatisation manages to infuse an element of suspense and thrill in the concluding pages, which ends with a climax. I suspect not the ideal first book to be read of Tagore.
