  1. Akshay Jain

    Stein is a genius! This collection showcases her innovative use of language and her unique perspective. Highly recommend this book.

  2. Premkanth Karumanchi

    A mixed bag. Some stories were brilliant, others felt repetitive. If you’re new to Stein, this is a good introduction, but be prepared for a challenge.

  3. Stuti Seth

    I appreciate Stein’s contribution to literature, but her style is not for me. I found many of the stories confusing and ultimately unsatisfying.

  4. Dipra Halder

    This collection offers a comprehensive look at Stein’s evolution as a writer. While not everything resonated, the overall experience was positive.

  5. Abhishek Gedam

    It’s a bit hit or miss, but when Stein hits, she really hits! There are some real gems in this collection. I’m glad I read it.

  6. Anurag Ghoshal

    I found this book incredibly frustrating. Stein’s writing is so dense and impenetrable. I did not enjoy the book at all.

  7. Rishabh Choudhary

    I was hoping to love this, but I found it difficult to engage with most of the stories. Stein’s style is just too abstract for my taste. A little bit disappointed.

  8. Shreya Bansal

    A great overview of Stein’s work. The editor did a fantastic job curating this selection. Some stories are dense, but overall, a rewarding read.

  9. Sourav

    I struggled with this collection. Stein’s writing is so abstract, I found it hard to connect with the stories. Not my cup of tea, unfortunately. I was hoping for more.

  10. Om Satish Pingle

    An excellent collection of Stein’s work. The stories are thought-provoking and often surprising. A must-read for fans of experimental literature.

  11. Yatharth Bhardwaj Bhardwaj

    A challenging but ultimately rewarding read. Stein’s experimental style takes some getting used to, but her ideas are fascinating. Worth exploring.

  12. Simarpreet Singh

    Absolutely fascinating! Stein’s wordplay is incredible. Not always easy to understand, but worth the effort. A true modernist masterpiece. I enjoyed it.

  13. Pooja Sharma

    Stein’s experimental style is definitely on display. Some stories resonated, others left me scratching my head. An interesting, if uneven, collection.

  14. Airene Ganguly

    Stein’s writing is like nothing else. This collection is a great way to experience her unique voice. Prepare to be challenged and intrigued.

  15. Himanshu Shekhar

    Some stories are gems, others are duds. If you’re a fan of modernist literature, you’ll probably enjoy this collection. It’s a mixed feeling for me.
