The Home and the World (Ghare-Baire), published in 1916, is one of Rabindranath Tagore's most celebrated novels. Set during the Swadeshi nationalist movement in Bengal, it is told through the alternating voices of three characters: Nikhil, a progressive, thoughtful zamindar; his wife Bimala, who ventures out from the domestic sphere for the first time; and Sandip, a passionate nationalist leader. The novel explores the tensions between love and ideology, tradition and modernity, and the dangers of blind devotion to any cause. It is both a love triangle and a profound political allegory.
