Essay from the year 2016 in the subject English - Literature, Works, National Institute Of Technology Durgapur (NIT Durgapur), course: PhD, language: English, abstract: Rabindranath Tagore's 'Hungry Stones' despite its rather cold dismissal by the western critics because of its lack of plausibility is a gothic romance par excellence. The story begins on a train, where the first narrator, supposedly the author meets a Mohamedan gentleman who was a fellow passenger in the same train. The narrator admits of being puzzled when he heard the gentleman talking about diverse matters that he was unaware of.§§Thus the narration prepares us from the very opening like a Shakespearean drama of our coming future engagements with a world that could equally puzzle us though its equally baffling enactments. The narrator also admits, "Hitherto we had been perfectly happy, as we did not know that secret and unheard of forces were at work, that the Russians had advanced close to us, that the English had deep and secret policies, that confusion among the native chiefs had come to a head." (Tagore 3) But his newly acquired friend said with a sly smile: "There happen more things in heaven and earth, Horatio than are reported in your newspaper." (Tagore 3)§§The analogy is at once perfect, puzzling and full of connotation. It simultaneously dropped us into the actual undisciplined chaos of apprehending terror from the Hamlet's world into this setting and prepares us for the second narrator's Hamlet like quest after the administration of the unknown and perhaps unknowable but inviting world as if in a unbreakable spell.
