8 reviews for Promised Land

  1. Anurag Raj

    The political commentary was interesting, but sometimes overshadowed the personal narrative. A decent read, nonetheless.

  2. Shardul Rahul Utpat

    While the themes are relevant, the prose was dense at times, making it a bit challenging to fully engage with the story.

  3. Devansh Saxena

    An important story that needs to be read. Her honesty is refreshing. I really enjoyed experiencing Antin’s world through her words.

  4. Tanishta Roy

    I loved the historical context and Antin’s personal reflections. A truly insightful look at early th-century America.

  5. Jay Ishwarbhai Sadhu

    I appreciated Antin’s bravery and resilience. It offers an important view of American history, even if it’s not always an easy read.

  6. Aviral Pathania

    A moving and thought-provoking account of immigration and the challenges of adapting to a new culture. Highly recommended.

  7. Piyush Bhanwal

    A powerful story of assimilation and finding a new identity. Some parts were slow, but overall, very impactful and worth reading.

  8. Ankit Patel

    Antin’s journey is compelling, but the writing style felt a bit dated for me. Still, a valuable glimpse into the immigrant experience.
