  1. Devender Pratap Mall

    This anthology is a treasure! Discovering so many diverse voices was truly inspiring. A must-have for any poetry lover.

  2. Vishal Sinha

    Enjoyed the breadth of poets included, but found the selection a bit uneven in quality. Some poems resonated deeply, others less so.

  3. Supriya Bharti

    A broad selection, but I wish there was more context provided for each poet and their work. Still, an enjoyable read.

  4. Mayank Sharma

    I loved discovering new poets from around the world. The translations were excellent and easy to read.

  5. Shaivi Naaz

    An excellent anthology. The range of voices is incredible, and the translations are generally well done. A great resource.

  6. Devansh Arya

    A mixed bag. While I appreciated the effort to include so many cultures, some translations felt awkward and lost the original intent.

  7. Sakshi Mishra

    Absolutely stunning! This book opened my eyes to the beauty and power of world poetry. I will cherish it always.

  8. Shreya Paul

    McClatchy did a great job curating this collection. It’s a fantastic introduction to global contemporary poetry. Highly recommended!

  9. Varun Mittal

    This book is a gift! It’s beautifully curated and offers a diverse range of poetic perspectives.

  10. Mohit Baheti

    I was hoping for more from this collection. While there are some gems, many poems didn’t quite move me.

  11. Aditya Pratap Singh Parihar

    A wonderful collection, exposing me to poets I’d never encountered. Some translations felt a bit flat, but overall a worthwhile read.

  12. Pushpam Raj

    Interesting collection, although I felt some of the poems lacked emotional depth in translation.

  13. Hargun Kaur

    Good selection of poets but the book feels overwhelming at times. Difficult to digest in one sitting.

  14. Tannu Rani

    A decent overview of contemporary world poetry, but not exceptional. Some poets were overrepresented, others ignored.
