Benares seen from within book by Richard Lannoy.
“Lannoy’s Benares is no tourist’s idyll, nor yet is it an exercise in peddling a ‘Third World’ mythology of exotica garnished with grunge. Unflinching in his observations, yet enormously sensitive to his subject, Lannoy records the everyday life of Hinduism’s most sacred city. And it is not through the formal acts of ritual, but through the most ordinary gestures of river-side and marketplace that the charged, heightened drama of life in Benares unfolds.”-
This is a beautiful large library or hardcover coffee table book on Benares India.
