Gora by Rabindranath Tagore.
Tagore's books are classics of world literature. A few of Tagore's works are available on amazon.com. Tagore wrote profound and meaningful poems, novels, plays, essays and short stories. Tagore was the first non European to win the Nobel prize and I highly recommend reading Rabindranath Tagore.
