  1. Ayush Jain

    A great introduction to Mir Taqi Mir. The selected ghazals are a good representation of his work. However, I wish there were more contextual notes.

  2. Pranav Chawla

    The poems are beautiful, but the format could be improved with more background information.

  3. Prince Sahu

    Mir’s poetry is profound and moving. I found myself lost in his verses, contemplating the themes of love and life. A must-read for poetry lovers.
