This book was a refreshing kick-starter to get me out of my reading block. I was always interested in reading Tagore's books but somehow never got around to it. The Gardener is a lovely compilation of poems that elegantly covers topics of love, life, nature and everything in between. A major chunk of the poems follow a lyric and prose poetry form. Often times, the captivating lines took me on a journey and forced me to imagine the people or the scene being described; with closed eyes.

Overall, it was a light, heartwarming and often thought-provoking read and I would definitely revisit it in coming years.

I read this one for my girlfriend, and some of it was better than other bits of it. And my favorite one was the first one. And some of them fit more than I'd like. This was definitely an interesting choice and I have to say I love getting requests for her.

Da mi je poezija imalo jasna, možda bih mogao mnogo više da cenim ovu zbirku. Verovatno to i zaslužuje. A pošto (i dalje) nije, trojka, jer uprkos Tagoreovoj fascinantnoj lirici, od osamdeset i pet pesama koje sam pročitao, mogu da se setim svega pet-šest. U trenutku čitanja sjajno, momenat posle zaboravno.

Inspired me to write poetry. Read it five times, grew with it, used it to measure my growth. It's not extraordinarily beautiful, but the emotions you pick up from it makes it unforgettable.
