The Post Office

Adopted by his uncle Madhav, Amal is a lonely child whose illness prevents him from venturing beyond the confines of the courtyard. Standing at the gate, he talks with anyone who will stop to listen. When a new post office is built next door, Amal begins dreaming of adventure. The Post Office is a play by Rabindranath Tagore.

About the author

Rabindranath Tagore (1861-1941) was an Indian poet, writer, playwright, composer, philosopher, social reformer, and painter who reshaped Bengali literature and music as well as Indian art. In 1913 he became the first non-European and the first lyricist to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. His rejection of rigid classical forms and linguistic strictures enabled him to compose works known for their lyricism, colloquialism, naturalism, and optimism.
