lovers gift and crossing
This contains the poems 'Lover's Gift' and 'The Crossing'. In 'Lover's Gift', Tagore addresses Shah Jahan, the man who built the Taj to enshrine the memory of his beloved and their love. Tagore's gift to his lover are his songs - lyrical, profound and moving. In 'Crossing', Tagore's poetry gains a religious tone. Images like the boat, the road, the sail and the lantern are used to symbolize the ultimate journey to God, the universal lover. A perfect complement to 'Lover's Gift', these poems clearly reveal Tagore's mystical genius. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.
