    Bengalees against the Bengal Renaissance
  

*by S***A on Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2015*

In a seminal work on the backdrop of the Bengal Renaissance, Tagore takes a couple of intelligent & slightly dreamy young men, two erudite & purposeful young women & plunges them neck deep in social disruption. This isn't much of a love story. This is a story of individuals on crusades of their own making, battling traditions & reform at the same time, fighting reason & romance in simultaneous duels, & coming up short time & again.At the heart of it though is the old battle of individuals against the collective, or many collectives. The Hindu society & Brahmo society - the latter, more rational, spiritual, even westernized - constantly battle for the hearts & minds of our protagonists. A hundred & fifty years earlier, Tagore was prescient enough to show that religions - whether palpitating with dogma or resplendent in their philosophical construct  - are simply a us versus them after all. They define themselves by how they differ from other religions & they hold you down as a collective with scant regard to your individuality. Add to this, the complexity of nationalism at battle with cronyism, visions & beliefs constantly at odd with experience, & you get a tapestry of undercurrents that swept through the late 19th century Calcutta.Brilliant, complex & compelling.

    A true social and cultural masterpiece
  

*by I***C on Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2014*

Still, there are some small flaws at the level of the narrative composition. Namely: some important events are left aside, when this should not have been the case. Also, some parts (among which the ending, imho) are a bit abrupt. But, nonetheless, this book is a wonderful read and I would highly recommend it.

    Simply marvellous and unforgettable.
  

*by A***K on Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2018*

I recently re-read Gora after many years. It is still one of my most favourite books on India. The conflict between religion and society, the difficulty of taking a balanced midpath amongst extremism, is still as relevant today in India, as it was 100 years ago. The characterisation of Gora, Binoy, Paresh Babu, Anandamoyi Ma, Sucharita,etc.is so beautiful. The maturity of the young girls in their thoughts and actions and the way they are guided by Paresh babu, is simply superb. One of the best reads of all time.
