Twinspotting: Patel Twins in Britain and India

Rating:
Summary: Great title and interesting topic
Review: In a book that gets this reviewer's award for best title of a photographic essay collection, Ketaki Sheth offers an interesting (if not limited) subject matter, the photography of twins named Patel in both India and England.

Sheth photographed more than 100 sets of multiples named Patel (the name originates in the 15th century and means record-keeper of crops) and chose 78 sets of twins and four sets of triplets to appear in her book.

Posed in banana fields, schools, streets in India and England, backyards, parks, weddings and other locales, the book offers beautiful photos that may be of special interest to two unique audiences--people with the surname Patel or twins of any type.
