Description
Originally written in Bengali in 1912, The Post Office, rich in symbolism and allegory, is a play about man's passionate cry for the faraway, for the call of the awakening in the world of spiritual freedom. Mahatma Gandhi was enraptured to witness the play in 1917 and W.B.Yeats thought it a masterpiece.
