Rabindranath Tagore (18611941) was the first non-Westerner to win the Nobel Prize in 1913, largely due to the strength of his own prose versions of his poems, which were greatly admired by W.B. Yeats. Joe Winter's selection from Tagore's more than forty books of poetry gives a wonderful sense of his variety in lyrics, songs, and narratives. It complements Winter's acclaimed translations of Song Offerings (2000), now in its third printing, and Tagore's essay collection Of Myself (2006).Joe Winter lived in Calcutta from 1994 to 2006. He received the Tagore Institute of Calcutta's 2006 award for the propagation of Tagore's work.
