  1. Priyanshi Madan

    Shafak’s translation is a gift! Proust’s genius shines through. I felt it dragged on at points, though

  2. Alankrit Sharma

    Proust’s masterpiece lives on! The translation is excellent. I got a little lost in the details at times, though.

  3. Siddharth Bhandari

    I wanted to love it, but it was too verbose for me. The translation is fine, but the story didn’t grab me as much as I hoped.

  4. Jiju M Santhosh

    This translation is fantastic! Proust is challenging but rewarding. I’m excited to read the next volume. It can be slow.

  5. Atul Dhillon

    Lost myself in Proust’s world! The translation is superb, bringing new life to the prose. Some parts felt unnecessarily detailed.

  6. Suniti Goel

    Excellent translation of a timeless classic. Proust’s writing is rich and insightful, it was difficult to read at times.

  7. Shivam Swami

    A classic for a reason! This translation is a great entry point. The language took some getting used to.

  8. Mukul Singh

    Beautifully written, but a bit too slow for my taste. The translation is good, but I struggled to stay engaged.

  9. Roshan Kumar

    Absolutely stunning! Proust’s observations on memory and society are timeless. I am ready to read the next one.

  10. Tanishq Kumar

    Good translation, but still a dense read. It requires patience. I am undecided if I will read the next volume.

  11. Mayank Joshi

    A beautifully written translation. Proust can be a challenge, but this edition made it easier to appreciate. A bit slow-paced for me though.

  12. Yash Jayvant Borse

    Not my usual genre, but I was captivated. Proust’s insights are incredible. A bit long and winding at times.

  13. Ajay Kumar Nagar

    I’m so glad I finally read Proust! This translation is very accessible. I was not bored at all.

  14. Nitya

    A decent translation, but the book itself wasn’t for me. It felt like a chore to get through. I lost interest half way.

  15. Prashant Singh

    I found it boring. I did not enjoy it. The descriptions seemed overly long and unnecessary. I couldn’t finish it.
