Falkland Road: Prostitutes of Bombay: Photographs and Text by Mary Ellen Mark
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
After watching the moving documentary Streetwise, I did a little research on Mark and came across this 1981 book of photography and vignettes of working prostitutes of Bombay. This is a collection of very candid, matter-of-fact pictures of female and transvestite prostitutes at work. After several pages of introduction covering how Mark came over more than one visit to befriend some of these people there are full page photos with captions.
