Author Description

Raghu Rai is one of the greatest Indian photographers. Impressed by an exhibition of his work, Cartier-Bresson nominated him to join Magnum in 1977. In India Notes, Rai shares his vision of India, documenting its excesses and contrasts. These striking images are supported by Terzani's text - lyrical odes to a beloved country, which he has learnt to know intimately. Terzani was the Asia correspondent for Der Spiegel for 30 years. He is also the author of numerous books, including A Fortune-Teller Told Me: Earthbound travels in the Far East, published by Flamingo in the UK.
