Good academic book. Can be more approachable. It could use more editing and clear example. Overall great effort by writer.

This book is great for anyone interested in theatre. It really made me reflect on how drama is created across cultures and what makes a good show.

Felt like author wanted to cram too much information in limited number of pages. Some ideas were never fully fleshed out. Worth reading, just be prepared for a dense read.

A deep dive into anukarana, rasa, and other concepts. It’s challenging but rewarding if you’re serious about understanding dramatic theory. Good stuff, but needs work.

While the book’s premise is interesting, I found it to be a bit too academic. Some concepts needed more clarification and practical examples. Still, a solid effort.
