A must-read for anyone interested in Hindustani classical music! Begum Akhtar’s life was extraordinary. Some sections were a little dry though.

I enjoyed learning about Begum Akhtar’s life, but found the book somewhat disjointed. It jumped around chronologically.

A well-researched and informative book. It sheds light on a fascinating artist. Could have used more photos.

Akhtari’s story is truly inspiring. The book beautifully captures her struggles and triumphs. Though, the writing style felt a bit academic at times.

A fascinating glimpse into Begum Akhtar’s life. The essays are insightful, but I wished for more personal anecdotes. Overall, a good read for music lovers.

An okay book. Not great but not bad either. As a layperson, it was a little intense with its musical concepts.
