10 reviews for Lysistrata and Other Plays

  1. Varun Dwivedi

    I struggled with The Clouds, but Lysistrata made up for it. A mixed bag, but ultimately enjoyable.

  2. Arnav Sharma

    Great collection! It provided good insight into early Greek theatre and societal expectations.

  3. Himanshu Kumar Singh

    I loved this collection! Hilarious, thought-provoking, and still relevant today. I would definitely buy another edition.

  4. Aditi Bansal

    Enjoyed the humor, though some jokes didn’t quite land for me. The Birds was my favorite of the three.

  5. Khushwant Sodhi

    Pandey’s translations are accessible, but I missed some of the original poetic flair. Still, a worthwhile read.

  6. Vishal Tomar

    Lysistrata is hilarious, but The Clouds felt a bit slow. Overall, a good introduction to Aristophanes.

  7. Reetish Mohan Panigrahy

    Good, but not great. It’s a solid version but I wasn’t blown away. I expected to be more.

  8. Nimish Yadav

    Lysistrata is riotously funny. Some of the other plays felt a little less engaging, but overall a good collection.

  9. Ekansh Khandelwal

    A must-read for anyone interested in Greek comedy! Lysistrata is as relevant today as it was centuries ago.

  10. Anushka Agrawal

    These plays are surprisingly modern! Pandey’s translation makes them easy to understand. I really appreciated his translation.
