Aditi Rawat –
A solid historical account. It can be a bit heavy if you’re not already familiar with the era but it’s good.
Chakrash Chauhan –
I couldn’t put it down! Axelrod’s writing is superb, and the historical details are fascinating. Amazing book.
Anisha Saini –
It was okay. I was hoping for more analysis of Shakespeare’s plays themselves, not just the background.
Jatin Kumar Khare –
Axelrod brings the period to life! I learned so much about the context of Shakespeare’s plays. Highly recommend!

Not a bad book, but it could have been more engaging. The information is there, but the presentation needs work.

A deep dive into Elizabethan England. Some parts were slow, but the insights into Shakespeare were brilliant.

Interesting but dense. It’s a scholarly work, so it requires focus. Still a good resource for understanding Shakespeare.

This book really opened my eyes to the world Shakespeare lived in. The author did a great job showing the time period.

While informative, ‘Soul of the Age’ felt a little too academic. I wished for a more engaging narrative style.
Yash Dubey –
I enjoyed learning about the history, but the writing style was a bit dry for my taste. Still informative, though.
