[Prateek Gemawat]

The book content was awesome. The culture of rajasthan, specially of the tribes was mesmerizing and revealing. The conversations were well and simple. But the brief comments by Rustom Bharucha were somewhat difficult to comprehend and not in simple language. However the content was quite strong and captivating. I rate it a full five!

[Bhumika]

Oral Rajasthani History is very fascinating and caters to various perspectives.

[Shubhi Awasthi]

This book is a fantastic read if you are interested in Rajasthani folklore, art, storytelling, or narratives.
