The Post Office is a play by Indian author Rabindranath Tagore. The story focuses on Amal, an orphaned boy who, confined to his home by illness, dreams of receiving a letter from the king. Through his imagination and innocence, Amal transforms his reality and finds joy in the hope of what is to come. This Akal edition, belonging to the Básica de Bolsillo collection, presents a translation by José Antonio López de Letona, which seeks to bring the delicacy and depth of the original text closer to the Spanish-speaking public.

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.
