Through this book we come to learn more about the circumstances that together construct the particular spatial environment known as the slum, the representations of Delhi's street children that become fixed as a part of the guides' identities and performances, the aestheticization of the slum, and the complex interplays in the co-performances that are the tours. It provides a compelling and insightful lens into the intersections of the complex objectives and impacts of encounters between poverty and tourism. - Meghan Muldoon, Arizona State University
