24 reviews for Out of Gods Oven: Travels in a Fractured Land

  1. Vinayak Sharma

    The author could have covered the topic in a better and organized fashion. It fails to strike a chord! Definitely not recommended.

  2. Harsh Mukesh Thosar

    An essential read for anyone wanting to understand India beyond the surface. It’s not always a comfortable read, but it is always thought-provoking. The historical context is incredibly helpful.

  3. Lalit Kumar Chauhan

    A mixed bag. Some chapters were incredibly insightful, while others felt a bit meandering. The writing style is elegant, but the book could have benefited from tighter editing. Still worth reading.

  4. Yash Sandeep Wayangankar

    A fascinating, if sometimes overwhelming, journey through India. The writing is beautiful, but the sheer volume of information can be a bit much. I found some parts more engaging than others. Overall, a worthwhile read.

  5. Sneha Kumari

    Amazing is an understatement. This book deserves all the praise it gets. The authors did a phenomenal job of capturing India’s essence. Worth every penny.

  6. Nimisha Mishra

    While some parts were excellent, the constant negativity made it a bit of a slog. India is far more than the issues presented in the book. I wish they included some positive aspects.

  7. Ashutosh Goswami

    A powerful exploration of India’s soul. The book presents a nuanced view. Some parts were hard to digest, but important. Should be read by anyone interested in cultural understanding.

  8. Saheli Thakur

    I really feel the authors captured the essence of India in their work. A truly masterful work. A must read for anyone interested in Indian culture or history!

  9. Anik Nayek

    Enjoyed this book very much. I found the writing style to be delightful and enlightening. I will recommend this book to anyone I know who is interested in Indian culture.

  10. Pratik Hebbar

    I appreciated the depth of research and the authors’ willingness to grapple with difficult issues. Occasionally, it felt a bit academic. However, the overall impact is undeniable. A solid book.

  11. Nakul Awasthi

    Moraes and Srivatsa paint a vivid picture of India’s complexities. Some of the observations felt a bit dated, but still a valuable and insightful exploration. Would recommend to those interested in travelogues.

  12. Tarun

    The authors’ passion for India is evident throughout. The book offers a profound understanding of its culture. It does get bogged down with too many facts.

  13. Anup Mangwani

    Some sections were enlightening. The writing was too dense for my liking. Overall, it was an okay book. I was hoping to like it more, but I feel that the writing ruined it.

  14. Preethi Vardhan Yadav Golla

    The book was very informative, and I enjoyed how the authors went into detail about the history. I enjoyed the historical anecdotes and would recommend this book.

  15. Rahul Singh

    Good book, but could be better. I feel the authors failed to touch upon a few aspects. However, I enjoyed the work for what it’s worth.

  16. Chirag Kapoor

    Found it overly focused on the negatives. Needed more balance. India is more than poverty and strife. Disappointed by the limited perspectives.

  17. Saurabh

    Enjoyed the book, but found the writing style a bit dense at times. Needed to re-read some paragraphs to fully grasp the meaning. Still, a worthwhile exploration of India.

  18. Juhi Manohar Mahajan

    The beginning was great, the ending was great, the middle was okay. The pace was slow but I appreciated the authors’ dedication to the topic. A good read overall!

  19. Sahil Matta

    This book truly captures the essence of India. The authors don’t shy away from showing the good and the bad. An enlightening and sometimes heartbreaking read. Highly recommend.

  20. Poushali Bhowmik

    Dense and insightful. Needs a slow and thoughtful read. It is challenging but also rewarding. A great book if you are truly interested in Indian culture.

  21. Saurabh Kumar Singh

    A good book! But the author has failed to include current affairs. It’s a great piece of writing, however. A fair job overall!

  22. Rahul Raj

    Too scholarly and not enough heart. The authors present a skewed view of India that does not align with its true nature. Would not recommend it.

  23. Siddhant Gautam

    An eye-opening experience. Authors have really given their all to the project. A new appreciation for the Indian culture is the biggest takeaway.

  24. Aswin M

    A journey through India’s beauty and sorrow. The writing is gorgeous, and the stories are so powerful. Certain parts were repetitive. I appreciate the overall experience.
