Na-Jana Thakurbari by Parthajit Gangopadhyay [Hardcover]
"A Necklace of Stories from Thakur Bari. Not made-up stories, but sixteen-annas (complete) truths. There are various kinds of incidents, some of joy and happiness, and others of sorrow and grief.
After receiving the 'Nobel', Rabindranath expressed his anger and pain at the felicitation ceremony. The boat capsizing had nearly prevented Satyendranath from going to study ICS. Dwijnedranath had altered a document to give the household servants rights to the property. The pain of losing his daughter was mixed into paintings by Abanindranath. Dwijnedranath would tie his shirt tightly to prevent it from flying away. Even clothing and attire were subjects of contemplation at Thakur Bari. There were abundant arrangements for gastronomical satisfaction, with French chefs hired.
This book contains many such astonishing incidents and their descriptions. The British considered Rabindranath a 'notorious criminal.' In that criminal's residence, at Jorasanko, the Lt. Governor would eat fried puffed rice with fried chickpeas. Truly, these things are hard to imagine. There are so many strange anecdotes about Rabindranath. He, who was bound by responsibility to his family every moment, has been the subject of countless bizarre tales. There are so many suggestive remarks about Ranu. Rabindranath first met Ranu on the day Madhurilata died. Ranu herself has said, 'After the funeral, he stood in front of our house like a beggar, calling out, "Ranu, Ranu, where are you?"'
Will fabricated stories and false rumors continue to spread?"
