«El cartero del rey» is the play by Rabindranath Tagore published in 1981 by Felmar, in paperback, together with «La luna nueva».
Amal is a sick boy confined to his room. To escape, he imagines he is the king's postman and turns that fantasy into a window onto the world he cannot set foot in: the passers-by, the letters that never arrive and the small gestures of those around him. The play speaks of innocence, hope and the happiness hidden in everyday life.
The volume is no. 6 in the «Poesía y prosa popular» collection and includes «La luna nueva», translated by Fernando De Mier Werst.
Aimed at readers of classic theatre and admirers of Indian literature; Tagore received the Nobel Prize in Literature.
Rabindranath Tagore was a Bengali poet, author, playwright, musician, composer, philosopher, social reformer, painter, and one of the foremost figures of the Bengal Renaissance. In 1913, Tagore became the first Indian and non-European to win a Nobel Prize in any category, and also the first lyricist to win the Nobel Prize in Literature. A significant moulder of culture within Bengal and the Indian subcontinent, he wrote and composed the national anthems of India and Bangladesh.
