10 reviews for Wide Sargasso Sea

  1. Rashi Sharma

    I was captivated by Antoinette’s character. The book is beautifully written, though the ending left me feeling deeply unsettled. Definitely worth reading.

  2. Akshat Jain

    The book is very descriptive. It is a good read if you like classic literature. The themes were pretty heavy.

  3. Subhayan Chowdhury

    A hauntingly beautiful exploration of identity and oppression. Rhys’ writing is exquisite, and Antoinette is a fascinating character. Highly recommended.

  4. Sahil Chaprana

    The book is a great read. I liked the historical context. The story was engaging and kept me interested from beginning to end.

  5. Sahil Bansal

    I appreciate the themes, but I found the prose a little difficult to get through at times. Antoinette’s plight is compelling.

  6. Suryaveer Singh Deora

    Jean Rhys’ prose is lyrical. The book does a fantastic job of fleshing out the character of Bertha/Antoinette. It gives voice to a silenced character.

  7. Poojitha Matangi

    The book offered an interesting perspective. It felt incomplete. I wanted more of Antoinette’s story after she left Jamaica.

  8. Nitish Kumar

    Rhys’ writing is beautiful, but the story is ultimately quite depressing. Antoinette’s descent is heartbreaking. A worthwhile, though unsettling, read.

  9. Sumit Kumar

    A powerful and haunting story. Rhys perfectly captures the atmosphere of colonial Jamaica. However, I found some parts a bit slow.

  10. Kumar Kartikeya

    The book is beautifully written, but incredibly sad. Antoinette’s story is tragic and disturbing. I am not sure if I enjoyed it, but I was moved.
