Tagore reflects on his childhood in this memoir, detailing his experiences under a household dominated by servants, which he terms 'servocracy.' He recounts a disciplined upbringing imposed by his father, highlighting his loneliness and introspection, with his only companion being his own soul. Amidst this Spartan life, he discovers the dual forces of joy and misery that would shape his creative journey. His ability to find wonder in everyday moments ultimately contributes to his development as a profound poet.
