  1. Abhishek Agrawal

    Good collection, some stories were better than the others, but overall I enjoyed reading it. I really liked the writing style.

  2. Aditya Singh

    ‘Life in the Iron Mills’ was powerful. Found the others a bit slow. Interesting perspective on the era.

  3. Anuksha Roy

    It was a nice book. But the stories did not impress me much. They were just okay for one time reading.

  4. Abhigyan Raj

    Interesting but a bit too slow for my taste. ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ was the best of the bunch. Others were so so

  5. Aryaman Sharma

    Loved ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’! The other stories were okay. Good intro to early American women writers. Worth a read.

  6. Esha Deswal

    Enjoyed the glimpse into th-century female experiences. Some stories resonated more than others. Good selection overall.

  7. Vivek Gupta

    Found it insightful, though some narratives felt less compelling. Great for understanding women’s roles then.

  8. Akshit Gulati

    A mixed bag. ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ is haunting, but others felt dated. Worth reading for the historical context.

  9. Rishika Pandey

    Uneven but worthwhile. ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’ is a masterpiece! The other stories provide good contrast.

  10. Pritam Mandal

    A must-read for anyone interested in American literature! The stories are thought-provoking and beautifully written.

  11. Maniratnam

    A fascinating collection. Edith Wharton’s story stood out. Well-edited and a great introduction to these authors.

  12. Kaushik Roy

    Delightful collection! Sarah Orne Jewett’s story was a highlight. A lovely exploration of different themes.
