Overrated, in my opinion. I appreciated the artistry, but I didn’t enjoy the story. Stephen is not a likeable character.
Saikat Das –
Found it a bit slow-paced, but the writing is undeniably beautiful. A classic for a reason, though not my personal favorite.
Arjun P –
Visually stunning and intellectually stimulating. Stephen’s struggle with faith and identity resonated with me deeply.
Anshul Jhalani –
Excellent book, A must-read for anyone interested in modernism or the development of the novel. A brilliant depiction of artistic awakening.
Shyam Sundar Mishra –
A true classic! Joyce’s language is stunning, and Stephen’s journey is both inspiring and heartbreaking. Highly recommend this edition.
Shaswati Doley –
Phenomenal book. Joyce’s prose is lyrical, and Stephen’s journey is deeply moving. The best edition I’ve seen.
Archit Singhal –
I have mixed feelings. It’s a very important book but I did struggle with the language. Knausgaard helped provide context, though.
Kumaramangalam Srikar –
A bit pretentious. The writing is beautiful, but the story felt self-indulgent. Knausgaard’s insights were interesting, though.
Ashutosh Goswami –
An absolute masterpiece! This edition is gorgeous, and Joyce’s writing is simply sublime. A must-read for any serious literature lover.
Pankaj –
I enjoyed it, but it required patience. Joyce doesn’t hold your hand. But Stephen’s intellectual and artistic development is compelling.
Anmol Soni –
Captivating and beautifully written. Explores the journey of self-discovery with raw honesty. Highly recommend!
Anjali Yadav –
Beautifully written, but I struggled to connect with Stephen. His internal conflicts felt distant. Knausgaard’s foreword was a highlight, though.
Shachi Jain –
The book was good, but not great. Stephen is self-absorbed and I found the religious themes heavy-handed.
Dev Narang –
It was okay. The writing style wasn’t for me, I felt detached from the story. The foreword was well-written and insightful.
Vipin Kumar –
A challenging but rewarding read. Joyce’s prose is dense, but the insights into Stephen’s mind are fascinating. Not always enjoyable, but definitely thought-provoking.
Rahul Nadimidoddi –
A challenging read due to the language, but ultimately rewarding. Delves deep into the mind of a young artist.
Shruti Choudhary –
Found it a bit slow-paced and hard to get into at first, but once I did, I was hooked. A complex and rewarding exploration of identity.
Sanket Vilas Bansod –
It is good, but not for casual readers. Joyce demands your attention. The edition is beautiful, and the foreword adds value.
