9 reviews for Culture and Anarchy and Other Selected Prose

  1. Hardik Sharma

    Arnold’s ideas are thought-provoking, but sometimes feel a bit outdated. Still, a worthwhile read for understanding Victorian society.

  2. Yamini

    Good introduction to Arnold’s work. Some concepts are a little hard to grasp initially. Needed more context sometimes.

  3. Divyanshu Jha

    Amanda Li and Ladybird did great job. I enjoyed reading this collection. Arnold’s words are as powerful as ever.

  4. Armaan Banger

    Excellent selection of Arnold’s prose. The introduction was very helpful. A must-read for literature students.

  5. Hariprasad Patra

    Disappointed. Expected more given the hype. Found it to be preachy and elitist at times.

  6. Shantanu Singh

    Interesting, but slow-paced. The language can be challenging for modern readers. Needed to consult external resources often.

  7. Sai Srinivas Chinnam

    Not the easiest read, but worth the effort. Arnold’s critique of society is still very sharp and insightful.

  8. Khushwant Sodhi

    Found some essays dense and difficult to get through, while others were fascinating. Mixed feelings overall.

  9. Prakash Kumar Singh

    A classic for a reason! ‘Culture and Anarchy’ is still relevant today. The edition is well-edited. Highly recommended.
