A bit verbose, but it paints a vivid picture of the Pacific theater. Definitely a classic for a reason.
Sundram –
I struggled to get through this. The language was dense and the story moved slowly. It offered insight, though.
Aritra Datta –
A brutal and honest portrayal of war. Some parts were hard to read, but I couldn’t put it down. Masterfully done.
Nishit Kumar –
Not very engaging. It felt like it dragged, and I felt the author was trying too hard to be poetic. No thanks.
Vishnuvardhan Veeravijaybabu Pinjala –
I appreciate the realism, but I found it depressing. Not my usual type of book, but I can see why it’s so acclaimed.
Daksh Dagar –
I had to keep a dictionary by my side. Lots of jargon but great story once you understand it. Worth the read.
Pankaj Dhalaria –
I was expecting more. It was okay, but didn’t leave a lasting impression. It felt a bit overrated to me.
Shivang Agrawal –
Mailer’s masterpiece! A must-read for anyone interested in WWII or the human condition. So many layers!
Priya Pandey –
Could not finish it. It has great characters, but the topic is not something I wanted to spend my time on.
Satish Sharma –
A raw and unflinching look at war. Mailer doesn’t pull any punches. It was a bit long, but overall a powerful read.
Rishabh Nayak –
It was long but the book depicts the war beautifully and with very little filter. Recommended for war history buffs.

A powerful story, beautifully written. It gave me a new appreciation for the sacrifices made during WWII.
Vaishnavi Kandwal –
An intense and thought-provoking novel. The themes of power and masculinity are very relevant today.
Ravinder Kumar –
The book has very colorful language. But the author potrays the raw emotion, fear and anxiety quite well.
Arshia Arora –
Mailer’s prose is captivating, but the sheer brutality of the war scenes was overwhelming at times. A difficult, but important book.
Priyanshu Ranjan –
The characters were well-developed, and the writing was strong. The plot dragged in places. Still a classic worth reading.
Adarsh Singh –
It is definitely a great book. There is a reason why it’s a timeless classic.
Lakshmi Anusha Wudali –
I could not put it down until I was done reading the book. The writing is superb, but the story can be quite depressing.

The scope of the novel is impressive. It’s a challenging read, but ultimately rewarding. Loved the perspectives.
Apurv Chaduvula –
Definitely a classic war novel. The writing is superb, but the story can be quite depressing. Be prepared for it.

Too much detail for me. I understand the historical importance, but I couldn’t connect with the characters.
