15 reviews for Masculine, Feminine, Neuter and Other Writings on Literature

  1. Neeraj Chitrasen Singh

    An interesting read, but definitely requires some background knowledge in literary theory. Not for casual readers!

  2. Sahitya Pramod Nahata

    A great introduction to Barthes’ ideas, though some of the concepts are quite dense. Definitely requires patience and a good dictionary!

  3. Deba Kumar Narzary

    A bit dense and academic, but ultimately rewarding. Barthes offers a unique perspective on literature and culture.

  4. Janvi Chauhan

    Fascinating perspectives. The language is pretty complex, however. So it may be difficult for casual reader.

  5. Harikrishnan P

    Some parts were great, but overall it felt like a bit of a slog. I appreciate Barthes’ intellect, but this wasn’t my cup of tea.

  6. Rishita Bachani

    Loved the variety of writers and topics covered. Barthes’ perspective is always unique and engaging. Highly recommend!

  7. Shreya Garg

    Found some essays insightful but a little repetitive. Overall, it’s good, but could have been better edited to remove repeated ideas.

  8. Sweta Yadav

    Challenging but rewarding. This book pushed me to think differently about literature. Be prepared to engage actively with the text.

  9. Shivani Rajeev Dhakate

    A mixed bag. Some essays were fascinating, others were a bit too academic for my taste. Still worth reading if you’re a Barthes fan.

  10. Jahnavi

    Barthes’ brilliance shines through in this collection. His insights are timeless and transformative. A must-read for anyone interested in literary theory.

  11. Dhruv Kumar

    Barthes is always thought-provoking, but this collection felt a bit uneven. Some essays were brilliant, others less so. Still a valuable read for serious lit students.

  12. Jashan Sankla

    I expected much more based on the book description. It just felt dull and hard to understand for most of the part.

  13. Rishav Srivastava

    Not my favorite Barthes collection. Some essays felt dated, and the translation could have been smoother, but the concept is good.

  14. Akash Patro

    Barthes at his best! This collection is a treasure trove of insights and observations. A must-read for any serious student of literature.

  15. Revanth R

    Fantastic collection of essays! Barthes’ insights are sharp and relevant. The book gives a great perspective in literature.
