Bernard Leach is the godfather of Western studio pottery. In this book, the well-known British potter Sebastian Blackie, who as a teenager was in correspondence with Leach, uses the format of emails to Bernard to muse about the state of ceramics today. The result is a light-hearted approach to a serious subject.
The emails cover a wide range of topics and the format and accompanying illustrations make this a book that readers can dip into at leisure or read through at one go as the mood takes them.
