  1. Vansh Gupta

    A powerful and evocative collection. The writers capture the essence of Tamil Nadu beautifully. Highly recommend this book to everyone.

  2. Adithya Venkatesh

    Interesting stories, but the pacing felt uneven. Some stories dragged on, while others ended too abruptly. Overall, a decent read.

  3. Pankaj

    Found this collection insightful and moving. It is good to read a non-western story for change. The writing is simple, yet profound.

  4. Naman Jain

    This book transported me to Tamil Nadu. The descriptions are lush and the characters are real. Be prepared for some difficult themes, though.

  5. Vaishnavi

    Enjoyed the exploration of rural life, but the narrative style was not always my favorite. But it’s definitely a perspective you do not see everyday.

  6. Tushar Goyal

    I enjoyed the glimpse into Tamil Nadu’s culture. The writing was evocative, but at times, the social commentary felt heavy-handed. Still, a thought-provoking collection.

  7. Rajat Kumar Singh

    This book surprised me. I learned so much about Tamil Nadu. The stories are well-curated and offer a diverse range of perspectives.

  8. Utsav Dahiya

    Not every story hit the mark for me, but the collection as a whole painted a vivid picture of rural life. Worth reading if you’re interested in cultural fiction.

  9. Nirmal Kumar

    The stories are well-written and provide a fascinating look at life in the black soil region. However, I wished there was more historical context provided.

  10. Jahanvi

    A very good book. The translation feels authentic, and the characters are memorable. Some stories are better than others, but that is expected.

  11. Aditya Rana

    A mixed bag. Some stories were captivating and others were confusing. I am not sure if it is the translation that made the stories confusing

  12. Nivedita Rawat

    A beautiful collection showcasing rural Tamil Nadu. Some stories resonated deeply, while others felt a bit slow. Overall, a worthwhile read for understanding a different way of life.
