Kusum

Most of this list starts at eight in the evening because most of the women on it have ordinary evenings of their own. Hers are the part of the day she cannot move, so the hours she can offer are the ones nobody else does. If two in the afternoon suits you better than ten at night, she is the page to be on.

She is from Sikar, which is three hours north and is where the Marwari in her house came from. Hindi and Marwari both; her English is ordinary and she will say so rather than pretend. Five foot three.

Four photographs, all taken the same afternoon in the same room, and they are all of her. The room is plain and she did not want that tidied up. Durgapura is the Tonk Road side, which puts the hotels along it inside ten minutes, and she drives to Ajmer when it is arranged ahead.
