   Prakriti Sharma – February 20, 2023

   While some stories were gripping, others felt a bit repetitive compared to the previous volumes. The inclusion of women’s voices was a major plus, adding depth to the narrative.

   The volume provides a wider view of that era by including stories from Bengali and Sindhi. The new stories give fresh perspectives on partition’s effect. It’s really impactful.

   This volume offered a new perspective with the inclusion of Bengali and Sindhi voices. It is a sad and difficult topic that needs to be discussed more.

   Stories about the Partition are painful, yet essential. This collection shares a variety of perspectives, some more compelling than others. A valuable, though heavy, read.

   I have read many books about partition. This book did not provide me any new information. It felt a bit repetitive. Good to read for the first time.

    The editor has done an amazing job of finding stories from different people from different places. I read this book in one sitting. I felt as if i was there.

    I was expecting more depth and emotion from this collection. While informative, it lacked the emotional punch I was hoping for. Still a worthwhile read.

    Excellent addition to the series. The stories from Sindhi writers were particularly moving. However, I found the editing a little uneven in places. Still, I learned a lot.

    The book does a good job of showing the human side of partition. It shows the pain the people felt. It should be read by all, especially the younger generation.

    Kuldeep Singh – November 26, 2024

    A decent collection, but not as impactful as I’d hoped. Some narratives felt rushed, and I wish there was more context provided for readers unfamiliar with the Partition.

    Mudit Jain – February 1, 2025

    This book explores religious identities, colonial influence, and the never-ending sorrow of separation. I think it is bit unorganized, but worth reading.
