{"product_id":"the-post-office-rabindranath-tagore-9789387488137","title":"The Post Office","description":"The Post Office (Bengali: Dak Ghar) is a 1912 play by Rabindranath Tagore. It concerns Amal, a child confined to his adopted uncle's home by an incurable disease. Amal stands in Madhav's courtyard and talks to passers-by, and asks in particular about the places they go. The construction of a new post office nearby prompts the imaginative Amal to fantasize about receiving a letter from the King or being his postman. The village headman mocks Amal, and pretends the illiterate child has received a letter from the king promising that his royal physician will come to attend him. The physician really does come, with a herald to announce the imminent arrival of the king; Amal, however, dies as Sudha comes to bring him flowers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rabindranath Tagore\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9387488136\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789387488137\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Maven Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 54\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.11d","brand":"Rabindranath Tagore","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48996373725439,"sku":"9789387488137","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-post-office-rabindranath-tagore-9789387488137","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
