9 reviews for W or The Memory of Childhood

  1. Yogesh Kataria

    I was completely captivated by the shipwreck story! The writing is beautiful and evocative. The second half lost me a bit.

  2. Ashutosh Goswami

    This book felt experimental, and wasn’t always successful. The prose is quite something, and the plot just sort of exists. Worth a try for literary fiction lovers.

  3. Mohit Rao

    A powerful exploration of memory and trauma. The writing is exquisite. This is a book that will stay with you long after you finish it.

  4. Siddhant

    A strange book, but compelling. The two stories felt disjointed at times, but the ending tied things together nicely. Not sure I loved it, but I certainly won’t forget it.

  5. Manchi Prasanth

    I loved the adventure and search, it was the memory of childhood I was looking for. The writing could have been paced better.

  6. Hriyam Dutta

    A unique and thought-provoking read. Bellos’s writing is masterful, even when the subject matter is difficult. Highly recommend for those seeking something different.

  7. Nigamananda Rao

    The childhood memories were beautifully written, but the ‘W’ section was bizarre and unsettling. I’m still processing what I read.

  8. Vanshika Rathi

    Interesting concept, but I found it a bit confusing and slow-paced. The writing was good, but it didn’t fully grab me.

  9. Lekshmi Nandana

    The ‘W’ section was so disturbing. I almost put the book down. Ultimately, I’m glad I finished it, but it wasn’t an easy read.
