  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.

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

    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.

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

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

    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.

    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.

    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.

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