"Showcasing the remarkable photographs of Paolo Pellizzari, this is a compilation of scenes of ordinary life in the streets, squares, and public locations around India—from a barber shop and a market to a bookstore and a road bustling with people. The title suggests the photographer's unique style—his eye sees and expresses one billion details, one billion attitudes, and one billion feelings. The panoramic format of the photographs gives each picture the grand feeling of an operatic stage. Captured here are the ways in which India's swelling population influences its physical characteristics, its architecture, and its public transportation—all facets of daily life in India."
