খোকাবাবুর প্রত্যাবর্তন

Rabindranath Tagore

Genre: Child, Classic

Language: Bengali

   The faithful man-servants of yesteryears are now impossible to find. Often it was not just feudal obligations but the genuine attachment that bound them to their masters. In Khokababur Pratyavartan - The Young Master's Return: Tagore shows how dedicated an old servant can be to the child of the family he works for.

To stone for a moment's mistake, Raicharan makes a personal sacrifice that is rare and heart-rending. Tagore's childhood at Jorasanko had been spent under a regime of faithful family servants. In his own zamindari days too he had come across common folk with tremendous dedication to their master.
