    Not what I expected, but still interesting. I think that it need a bit background on the time period.

    Great book, a classic for a reason. It may be a bit challenging for casual readers, but it’s worth the effort.

  6. Tanisha Gulati

    Found it a bit slow and dense. The historical context was interesting, but I struggled to connect with the characters.

  7. Soumya

    This is a classic for a reason. The book explores Tamil culture in a way that many books do not. The writing took time getting used to.

  8. Bharat Soni

    An enriching experience. Though there were moments that I got lost in the cultural differences, the characters were amazing

  9. Satabdi Das

    A beautiful and tragic tale! The emotions are raw and powerful. A bit long, but the ending makes it all worthwhile.

  10. Nisarg Vimal Lukka

    The cultural aspects were fascinating. Some pacing issues, but the story is ultimately compelling. Check the glossary.

  11. Neha Lalwani

    A powerful story, but the translation felt a little clunky. I still enjoyed the plot.

  12. Himanshu

    A classic! The story is gripping, but the language felt a bit dense at times. Still worth the read for the cultural insights.

  13. Md Kaif Alam

    Good story, though the writing style took some getting used to. Enjoyed learning about ancient Tamil culture.

  14. Devansh Gupta

    Interesting glimpse into Tamil history. I found some sections slow-paced. Overall, a worthwhile but challenging read.

  15. Meghanjali Bhatt

    The Silappadikaram is an epic tale of love, loss, and revenge. Although the story feels a bit dated.

  16. Rhea Louis

    An absolute must-read for anyone interested in Tamil literature! The characters are so well-developed and story world is enchanting.

  17. Swapnil Chatterjee

    This book is a masterpiece! It’s a little difficult to read in places, but the story of Kannagi is worth it.
