Aditya Kumar –
Trautmann brings Ghalib to life! A bit academic at times, but overall, a rewarding read. The historical context is excellent.
Akshat Chourasia –
It’s a good intro to Ghalib, but could be more engaging. I wish it had more direct quotes from his poems.
Deepti Singh –
Good, but focused a little too much on the historical aspects rather than the poetry itself, in my opinion.
Saksham Sharma –
An insightful exploration of Ghalib’s life and poetry. It really painted a picture of a complex and brilliant man.
Adarsh Pandey –
A decent introduction to Ghalib’s life. I wish there were more in-depth analysis of his poetry, though. Still, a good starting point.
Riti Fauzdar –
A wonderful biography! It sparked my interest in Urdu poetry. Highly recommended for history buffs and poetry lovers.
Aastha Sharma –
It was ok. I didn’t love it, but I didn’t hate it. There was not much emotional depth so I was unable to connect with Ghalib.
Chirag S –
Absolutely loved it. I was not familiar with Ghalib before. It has given me a great appreciation for Urdu poetry.
Anoushka Baral Swamy –
Readable and informative, but not particularly gripping. Good for students, perhaps, but not a casual read.
Sai Chander P. –
I enjoyed learning about Ghalib’s world. The book can be a bit dry, but the insights into Mughal India are fascinating.
Sandhya Ravi –
I found the writing style a bit dense. It was hard to get through at times. However, it was full of interesting facts
Nitish Kumar Singh –
A well-researched and comprehensive biography. I would definitely recommend it to anyone interested in South Asian history or literature.
Paras Gohri –
