  1. Prakriti Sharma –

    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.

  2. Arnav Aggarwal –

    Very moving stories that highlight the human cost of the Partition. Some stories were hard to follow, but overall a worthwhile and educational read.

  3. Nayan Gupta –

    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.

  4. Muskan Rastogi –

    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.

  5. Vanisha Mathur –

    This is one of the most thought provoking book i have ever read. Although it is hard to read such tragedies, it is important to learn.

  6. Esha Pareek –

    A must-read for anyone interested in the Partition. Heartbreaking and thought-provoking. Although difficult to read at times, these are stories that need to be told and remembered.

  7. Madhur Atre –

    Another powerful collection. Some stories resonated more than others, but overall a worthwhile read. It is a crucial part of history, and this book provides invaluable insights.

  8. Akash Tripathi Tripathi –

    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.

  9. Jacob George –

    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.

  10. Sushant Chandra –

    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.

  11. Subhankar Ghosh –

    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.

  12. Akansha –

    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.

  13. Khanak Bajpai –

    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.

  14. Kuldeep Singh –

    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.

  15. Mudit Jain –

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