  1. Rugved Deepak Tidke –

    An interesting but uneven collection. Some poems are amazing; others are just okay. Worth checking out if you are interested in the subject.

  2. Yashika Rajani –

    I struggled to connect with the poems. The themes felt distant, and the translation seemed a bit stilted.

  3. Sufiyan Adam –

    Challenging but rewarding read. The themes are powerful, and the language is rich. It requires patience.

  4. Soham Rajan Mehta –

    Kenneth Bryant’s translation does justice to Surdas. A great resource for scholars and enthusiasts. Highly recommend!

  5. Hemant Kumar –

    This book gave me a deep appreciation for Surdas. It’s wonderful addition to classical Indian literature.

  6. Suraj Kumar Panda –

    A good introduction to Surdas’s work. The poems are accessible and engaging. Enjoyed reading.

  7. Prasaanth S –

    I enjoyed learning about Surdas. Some poems were wonderful, while others didn’t resonate with me. Mixed feelings overall.

  8. Pratibha Singh –

    A valuable contribution to understanding Indian literature. The dual-language format is excellent. Recommend for poetry lovers!

  9. Ankit –

    The Krishna-Radha lyrics are beautiful. I wish there was more context provided for each poem though.

  10. Anant Garg –

    Surdas’s devotion shines through. Bryant’s translation captures the essence of the lyrics. A bit dense at times, but worth the effort.

  11. Nitesh Somani –

    Not my favorite poetry collection. Some pieces were moving, but many felt inaccessible. Good if you want a challenge.

  12. Anshuman Garg –

    A beautiful collection of poems. The translation is well done, and the original Devanagari script is a great addition. However, some poems felt repetitive.
