'An engrossing history of the deep connection between humans and clay' KATHERINE MAY, author of Enchantment'Fascinating and powerful' BRIAN ENOClay is baked into our culture: we have been taking handfuls of earth and forming them into their own image since our history began. In Clay: A Human History, Jennifer Lucy Allan navigates the story of humankind and our relationship to making and creativity through our relationship with this enigmatic, ancient material. Born out of a desire to know and understand the spiritual and practical applications of clay in both its micro and macro histories, Clay: A Human History is a hybrid of archaeology, history and lived experience as an amateur potter.'I have loved learning from every chapter in this beautiful and affecting book' VASHTI BUNYAN
