  1. Bhevendra

    A bit heavy-handed at times, but the message is clear. Orwell doesn’t pull any punches.

  2. Rashmi Singh

    I struggled to connect with the main character. Some characters had some racist comments.

    Orwell’s prose is sharp, but the story felt a bit slow-paced at times. Still, a worthwhile read for understanding colonial dynamics.

    A sobering look at the dark side of imperialism. Be prepared for a challenging read.
