Reviews

""Beautifully written and creatively argued, The Goddess in the Mirror presents an original perspective on beauty work that takes us beyond predictable and reductionist framings of the subject. Tulasi Srinivas's moving ethnography innovatively tracks how Hindu myths and stories that customers and workers narrate offer paths to becoming.""--Purnima Mankekar, coauthor of ""The Future of Futurity: Affective Capitalism and Potentiality in a Global City""
