The Man from Kabul

Mini isn't afraid of the towering Kabuliwala, the man from Kabul, and an unlikely friendship grows between them. When an unfortunate event pulls him away, years pass before he returns to find Mini no longer the little girl he once knew. This collection gathers eighteen hand-picked stories by Rabindranath Tagore, rewritten in English from the original Bengali, moving through love, sadness, happiness and longing. Along the way, they offer a glimpse into the social classes, customs and beliefs of Indian life long ago.
