    A beautiful window into Bengali history. The writing is evocative, but sometimes the pacing felt a bit slow. Overall, a worthwhile read.

    It was just okay for me. I appreciated the look into the past but got confused.

    A good introduction to Bengali literature. Some parts were slow, but overall enjoyable.

  12. Shubham Raj

    I appreciate the historical accuracy, but the stories didn’t fully resonate with me.

  13. Kartik Sharma

    The book gave a detailed look at the time and place, but I got lost in the details. This one was not for me.

  14. Mohd. Aqdas

    Fascinating historical context. I struggled with the length of the novels. A mixed bag for me.

  15. Shreya Gupta

    Enjoyed the glimpse into pre-independence India. However, some of the characters felt underdeveloped. Good, but not great.

  16. Shubham Singh

    I found “The Lonely Emperor” to be a bit dry. The other two novels were much more engaging.
