'The years were 1940 - 1941. Rabindranath Tagore had celebrated his eightieth birthday and was intermittently sick during that period of time till his death on 7th of August, 1941 (22nd of Shravan, B.S). Apart from his granddaughter Nandita (aka Buri) and youngest daughter Meera Devi, four other women stayed close to the poet, served him and later wrote memoirs of their experiences with intimate details not found in his official biographies. These were Nirbaan (1942) by Pratima Devi, selections from Alapchari Rabindranath (1942) and Gurudev (1962) by Rani Chanda, sections from Mongpu-te Rabindranath (1943) and Swarger
Kachakachi (1981) by Maitreyi Devi, Baishe Shravan (1960) by Nirmalkumari (aka Rani) Mahalanobis and selections from the writings of Amita Thakur.
Translated from the original Bengali for the first time, these memoirs cover a period of approximately the last one year of the poet’s life since the time he fell sick in Kalimpong till his death in Kolkata.
