BOOK REVIEW : DERRY MOORE'S “EVENING RAGAS”         
        (PUBLISHER- JOHN MURRAY, LONDON)         
                                 
                                      
          If you are a romantic about India, go for this beautiful black and white portfolio of         
          photographs. It's the fading of the Maharajas and their palaces. Vignettes of an India         
          that make you laugh or wallow in nostalgia about a more graceful unhurried era.         
                                        
      Derry Moore (the Earl of Drogheda) photographs a pattern of Indian life that is almost,  
      almost gone in circa 2001.  
                     
      I'm sharing a few shots with you for flavor.

 social landscapes        My favorite? The exquisite human interest portrait of the great T. S. Sadasivam with his wife,        
 art        Bharat Ratna M. S. Subbalakshmi. The photograph is worth a thousand pages of their written        
 dance       biography. It says everything about one of India's most beautiful couples. Don't you agree?
