«El cartero del rey» is the play by Rabindranath Tagore, published by Faro Editores SAS in paperback (80 pages, in Spanish).
The sick child Amal spends his days confined to his room, leaning out of the window to talk to passers-by and to imagine the outside world he cannot touch. When he discovers that the king's postman is to visit him, the wait becomes the driving force of the play, a reflection on life, death and hope.
Part of the Clásicos de siempre collection (no. 108). Translation by Enrique López Castellón and introduction by Manuel A. Penella.
For readers of classics of theatre and twentieth-century Indian literature; a brief drama about childhood and imagination.
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.
