Answer: Option C — Gitanjali - Rabindranath Tagore - Romantic Nationalism
Detailed Solution
Gitanjali (Song Offerings, 1910; English 1912) is a collection of devotional, spiritual poems addressed to God; it won Tagore the Nobel Prize in 1913. It is not a work of romantic nationalism.
The other three are correctly matched: Beckett is the classic Absurdist dramatist, Animal Farm is an allegory of the Russian Revolution, and Ulysses is the best-known stream-of-consciousness novel.

Books & Authors — Preparation
This question tests your understanding of Books & Authors, a key topic in the General Knowledge section. The detailed solution above uses a step-by-step approach to show the reasoning, and where available, a shortcut that helps you solve similar questions in under 90 seconds during the actual exam.
This topic covers famous books and their authors, including ancient Indian texts, works of the freedom struggle, classic and modern literature, autobiographies of famous people, and recently published books by well-known personalities. Questions usually name a book and ask for its author, or the other way round. Ancient and historical books, such as Arthashastra (Kautilya), Indica (Megasthenes) and Gitanjali (Rabindranath Tagore), are tested most often. Autobiographies are another favourite, so learn titles such as 'My Experiments with Truth' (Mahatma Gandhi) and 'Wings of Fire' (A. P. J. Abdul Kalam). Practise the books and authors questions below, written in the style of the general awareness sections of exams such as SSC, banking, railways, CUET GAT, MAH CET and CLAT. Each question comes with a detailed explanation that adds related facts, so every question helps you revise more than one point.
