Gora I : Romaani by Rabindranath Tagore

"Gora I : Romaani" by Rabindranath Tagore is a novel set in 1880s Calcutta during the British Raj. The story follows Gora, a staunch Hindu, and his best friend Binoy as they navigate love, friendship, and identity amid conflicts between Hindu and Brahmo Samaj communities. Two parallel romances unfold—Gora and Sucharita, Binoy and Lalita—against a backdrop of religious debate, caste tensions, and colonial rule. A shocking revelation about Gora's origins threatens to destroy everything he believes in. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
