Description: An interesting version of the classic Gitanjali by Rabindranath Tagore. This is a Bengali/English version, but all the publication information - publisher, date, etc - is in Bengali. I am guessing a publication date in the 1960s or thereabout based on the look and feel of the pages. The book is GOOD OR BETTER CONDITION. The dust jacket has light edge wear, but no tears or chips. The inside flaps have both been glued to the back of the boards; they could possibly be detached carefully, but I didn't try. The boards are eggshell white. The book has 192 pages; the first part is Bengali to page 137 - page numbers to this point are in Bengali - the English page numbering begins after the frontispiece, English title page, and dedication page; this first numbered page is 141. The English portion begins with the Introduction by W.B. Yeats, and continues until the book's end. There are 103 individually numbered passages in the English section. AN INTERESTING AND PRESUMABLY RARE VERSION OF THIS BOOK. On this classic from Wikipedia: "Gitanjali (Bengali: গীতাঞ্জলি, lit. ''Song offering'') is a collection of poems by the Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore. Tagore received the Nobel Prize for Literature, largely for the English translation, Song Offerings. It is part of the UNESCO Collection of Representative Works. Its central theme is devotion, and its motto is "I am here to sing thee songs" " B131
