  1. Harsh Tanwar

    I was hoping for more insight into her musical techniques. It’s more focused on her personal life, which is interesting, but…

  2. Navishek Bhatt

    A beautifully written and deeply moving biography. Annapurna Devi’s story is truly inspiring. Highly recommended!

  3. Somya Bhargav

    Absolutely captivating! I couldn’t put it down. A must-read for any music lover. This book is worth every penny.

  4. Tanu Chalotra

    A fascinating glimpse into a reclusive genius. Mallaby paints a vivid picture, though sometimes feels a bit speculative. Still a worthwhile read.

  5. Harshad Bromania

    Annapurna Devi’s story is compelling, and this book does a decent job telling it. I wish there were more personal accounts.

  6. Aditi Mishra

    While informative, the book felt detached. I didn’t feel a strong connection to Annapurna Devi herself.

  7. Shruti Chawla

    I enjoyed learning about Annapurna Devi, but the book could have been more engaging. It felt a bit academic.

  8. Yogita Waghey

    The book is alright. I learned a lot, but it dragged on a little in the middle. Not bad, but not amazing either.

  9. Narasimha Nadh S

    Excellent book! Sebastian Mallaby really brought Annapurna Devi to life. A story of a musical legend.

  10. Jatin Premkumar Paliwal

    A well-researched biography of a fascinating figure. The author did an amazing job. A very inspiring book

  11. Ravneet Singh

    Compelling and insightful. Mallaby has crafted a wonderful book. Grateful for this.

  12. Aditya Sahu

    Mallaby’s research is impressive, but the writing felt a little dry at times. Still, a valuable contribution to musical history.

  13. Ayush Singh

    A mixed bag. Some parts were captivating, others less so. Overall, a decent read for those interested in Indian classical music.
