    The narrative voice was a bit dry and I struggled to connect. Informative, but not particularly gripping

    A decent read, though Steinbeck’s focus felt a bit narrow at times. Still, a good introduction to the Raj.

  3. Nitish Negi

    A compelling read, painting a vivid picture of colonial India. Steinbeck truly brings history to life.

    It was an okay book. It had potential but the writing wasn’t as engaging as I had hoped for, it was a bit dull.

    It was a long read, and the book did not need to be this long. The author spent too much time on the minor details.

    Enjoyed the descriptions of the time period. Though the writing was not as engaging as it could have been.

    Steinbeck’s writing is beautiful, but I wish there was more depth to the historical analysis. A pleasant but not profound read.

    Absolutely loved the vivid descriptions! Felt transported to India. Some parts were slow-paced, though.

  18. Jayant Singh
