About This Novel
"Entanglement" is Tagore's novel describing urban life and the bourgeoisie. The author originally planned to write a trilogy about the lives of three generations of a capitalist family, entitled "Three Generations", but he only wrote the first part and published it under the name "Entanglement". Gumdini, a beautiful girl from a prominent family, marries the rude and frivolous millionaire Madusuna. The latter tries to control Gumdini by repeating the old trick of imposing his will on people and machines, but is defeated by Gumdini's strong personality and self-esteem. The novel chastises the empty and humble spiritual soul of capitalists, outlines the historical trajectory of capital's fortune and development, and truly describes the Indian bourgeoisie and its spiritual characteristics in the nineteenth century.
