In the following negative review, Mishra asserts that “with its banal obsessions and empty bombast, its pseudo-characters and non-events, its fundamental shapelessness and incoherence, The Ground beneath Her Feet does little more than echo the white noise of the modern world.”

This is a free excerpt of 58 words. There are 2,799 words (approx. 9 pages at 300 words per page) in the full critical essay.
