A fascinating glimpse into the life of Devika Rani. The book is well-researched, but I felt it lacked a certain depth in exploring her personal struggles. Overall, an interesting read.

A decent biography, but it felt a little too academic for my taste. I would have liked more anecdotes and personal stories. The price is not justifiable.
