Waswo X. Waswo provides us with a glimpse into India's
ageless soul with a series of enigmatic, subtly crafted photographs. But
India Poems: The Photographs is not just another glossy travel book for
the tourist market. It presents the reader with a thoughtful debate on
aesthetics, and examines the moral and cultural 
difficulties a Western
photographer must face when taking
a supposedly 'Third World' country for his subject.
Foreword by Ranjit Hoskote, with additional commentary by Pushpamala N.,
Prasad Bidapa, Marta Jakimowicz, J. Shimon and J. Lindemann, Pheroza Godrej,
Dr. Curtis Carter, Jack and Kathie Massey, Judith Ann Moriarty, Arti Rajan
Fulari, Dorrie Younger, Prasad Abu Bakr and more.
