25 reviews for Shalimar the Clown

  1. Satabdi Das

    Too many characters, too many plot lines. I couldn’t keep up. The writing style was beautiful, though.

  2. Manoj Singh

    A complex story with compelling characters. I would definitely recommend it.

  3. Vivek Mandal

    Rushdie’s talent shines through, but this isn’t his best work. Still, a good read.

  4. Avish M Bhandari

    The writing is great, but I found Shalimar to be unlikeable. Made it hard to be invested.

  5. Kanishk Kumar

    A powerful story, though the sheer number of characters made it hard to keep track. Kashmir’s plight is portrayed vividly.

  6. Animesh Kumar Sahu

    Rushdie’s prose is beautiful, but the story felt a bit disjointed. Still, a worthwhile read for its exploration of Kashmir.

  7. Ishu Yadav

    Overrated. I found the plot confusing and the characters unlikeable.

  8. Raaghav Varma

    Decent book, but not his best work. Little bit slow paced.

  9. Ajay Deepak Nakil

    I struggled to connect with the characters. The political elements overshadowed the personal stories for me.

  10. Vikash Pandey

    A challenging but rewarding read. The historical context is fascinating, and the characters are complex.

  11. Tejaswi Satya Sai Raj Mosa

    A must-read for anyone interested in Kashmir. Rushdie’s writing is lyrical and evocative.

  12. Kumari Shweta

    An epic tale of love and revenge. Some parts were slow, but the ending was powerful. I learned a lot about Kashmir.

  13. Khushbu Yadav

    A complex and ambitious novel. It requires patience, but it’s ultimately rewarding. The writing is exquisite.

  14. Kunal Gupta

    I enjoyed the first half, but the second half lost me. Too much going on.

  15. Adarsh Keshri

    Disappointing. I expected more from Rushdie. The plot was convoluted.

  16. Kanishk Raj Singh

    Too lengthy and the story dragged on. Not what I was expecting.

  17. Pankaj Kumar

    Beautifully written, but ultimately depressing. The story of Kashmir is heartbreaking.

  18. Anonymous

    A stunning novel! Rushdie’s best! The story is captivating, and the writing is superb.

  19. Ayushi Chaturvedi

    Brilliant descriptions, but the narrative jumped around too much. I felt lost at times. Kashmir’s story is heartbreaking.

  20. Ranjeet Singh Surjeet

    Mesmerizing language, but the plot meandered. I appreciated the historical context.

  21. Avdhut Arjun Rane

    Interesting premise, but the execution fell flat for me. I didn’t connect with the characters.

  22. Vijay Rahul S

    Rushdie at his best! A captivating story with beautiful writing.

    A powerful and moving novel. Rushdie’s writing is stunning, and the story is unforgettable. Highly recommended.

  25. Ishan Srivastava

    I loved the writing, but the story felt a bit too long and drawn out. Worth reading for Rushdie’s prose alone.
