"Calendar art appears in all manner of contexts in India: in chic elite living rooms, middle-class kitchens, urban slums, and village huts. This book examines the power that calendar art wields in Indian mass culture, arguing that its meanings derive as much from the production and circulation of the images as from their visual features." - Publisher.
