  1. Abhijeet Bera

    A powerful story of exile and resilience. The prose is stunning, though I wished there was more dialogue. Highly recommend!

  2. Sinjeni Sinha

    Levi’s writing is beautiful, though at times the narrative felt a little detached. Still a compelling account of a unique time and place.

  3. Anushka Bhartiya

    A beautifully written book, but I found the pacing to be quite slow at times. Still, the descriptions of Southern Italy are captivating.

  4. Om Ashokkumar Sahitya

    The descriptions are truly stunning, but the story was so depressing. A hard read, but a rewarding one.

  5. Abhishek Chaurasia

    A beautiful read! However, it’s quite slow at times. The detail and descriptions can be a bit much.

  6. Pulkit Chawla

    Good, but not great. I think it was a tad bit slow for me, and I didn’t always understand what was going on.

  7. Jharinath Ilaparti

    I found the book quite depressing. The book paints such a bleak picture, it was hard to enjoy.

  8. Monika Vemala

    Levi’s observations are keen and insightful. A bit depressing at times, but ultimately a moving portrait of a community. Definitely worth reading.

  9. Bijetri Chakraborty

    A classic for a reason. Though some of the political commentary went over my head, I loved the vivid descriptions of rural life.

  10. Sudhanshu Yadav

    Levi’s perspective is fascinating, offering a glimpse into a forgotten world. Some parts were a bit dense, but overall, a worthwhile read.

  11. Ishan Madan

    I have read it twice! Once for school, and once for leisure! It is well written, though some parts don’t stand the test of time.

  12. Vijaykumar Navanath Dhakane

    The book is interesting, but I think author sometimes tries too hard with descriptions. Overall a solid read.

  13. Deepankshi Mahendrakumar Dhamgaye

    The book is thought-provoking, but at times I lost interest due to lack of events. It is well-written and very descriptive though.

  14. Sohel Mubarak Sheikh

    The book started well but became a drag in middle. I still liked reading about the cultural observation though.

  15. Ayush Kukrele

    I was completely absorbed by Levi’s story. His empathy for the people of Gagliano shines through. A must-read for anyone interested in Italian culture.

  16. Arjun – Malik

    I enjoyed the historical context, though I occasionally struggled to connect with the characters on a deeper level. The writing is strong.

  17. Anshuman Vipul

    An important historical document and a beautifully written memoir. Highly recommended for those interested in political history.

  18. Saumya Sharma

    A profound exploration of human connection in the face of adversity. The book’s themes are so timely and touching.
