Ajay Kumar Nagar –
This book wasn’t for me. While the writing was good, the characters were hard to root for.
Manasvi Saboo –
Not a feel-good book, but a thought-provoking one. Waugh’s exploration of societal decay is masterful.
Nikhil Singhal –
The writing is excellent, and the story is engaging. A must-read for fans of classic literature.

A darkly comic and deeply moving novel. A Handful of Dust is a masterpiece.

Dark and cynical, but also surprisingly funny at times. I appreciated the satire, even if the ending was depressing.

A classic for a reason. The story is timeless and the writing is superb. Highly recommended.

A Handful of Dust is a powerful and moving novel. The characters are well-developed and the plot is gripping.

Waugh’s wit is undeniable, but the characters are so unlikeable! It’s a well-crafted tragedy, though.
Abhishek Kundu –
A classic, indeed. The story is timeless, and the satire remains relevant. Enjoyed it immensely.

A Handful of Dust is bleak but beautifully written. Waugh’s prose is sharp, but the story left me feeling empty.

I can appreciate the writing style, but the overall story was quite sad and hard to digest.

Waugh’s cynicism shines in this tragic tale. Well-written, though it left me feeling quite despondent.

I struggled to connect with the characters, but I admired Waugh’s writing style. Worth reading, but be prepared for a dark tone.

A brilliant and unsettling novel. The satire is biting, and the story is unforgettable.
