Product details
- Edmund de Waal, revered author and master potter, sets out on a journey that begins in the city of Jingdezhen in China and continues through Venice, Versailles, Dublin, Dresden, the Appalachian Mountains of South Carolina and the hills of Cornwall to tell the rich, fascinating story of porcelain.
- The writer meets the witnesses to its creation; those who were inspired, made rich or poor by it, and the many whose livelihoods, minds and bodies were broken by an obsession for it. The mesmerising work spans a thousand years and explores some of the most tragic moments in recent history.
