A. Datta (webmaestro) | 8 comments Excerpts from short story titled, Finally, by the first non-white and non-European Nobel laureate Rabindranath Tagore listed below, inter alia:
"A romping non-conforming feminine nature bespeaks itself and pulsates unceasingly in the eyes and aspect of this girl like a swift free-roaming wild antelope and makes her vibrant face unforgettable."
"Her name had been associated with an amount of infamy. The menfolk called her moonstruck, but the wives of the village were worried sick by her feral disposition. She always played with the boys and looked down upon the lasses no end and she came across like a free-booting Maratha cavalry upon the village kids."
