    A mixed bag. Some parts were fascinating, while others dragged. It’s worth a read if you’re particularly interested in Calcutta.

    Interesting perspective on Calcutta. Some parts resonated deeply, while others felt a bit detached. Worth reading for a different viewpoint.

    A decent read, offering glimpses into Calcutta’s soul. Watling captures the city’s pulse, but sometimes it feels a bit surface-level. Overall, an okay introduction.
