Description
'She rubbed the spoiled clay with her fingertips. Like a wound as it heals, the traces faded, and had soon vanished completely, as if they’d never been there at all.'
--
Burnt out by her newswriting job, Jungmin abruptly quits; she’s worked tirelessly for years and she needs to make a change.
Now, after months of hibernation, it’s time to put her life back together. Venturing out into the streets near Seoul, she stumbles upon the Soyo pottery workshop. Drawn in by its light and warmth, and the smell of clay and coffee, Jungmin feels something unfurl within her . . .
Here, everyone has a story to share, and as the seasons change, Jungmin returns to herself. Pot by pot, plate by plate, Jungmin discovers that as her hands become busier, her mind becomes calmer, and her heart opens up like never before.
From a rising talent, this is a heartwarming story of new friends and old practices, of finding community, and of what happens when you finally slow down in this fast-paced world.
Advance Praise
'Lovely. The characters were so sweet, and for once I didn't spend the whole novel hating the love interest. I thought the vibe of this book was just so warm and wonderful, and I would really recommend this to people as a perfect autumn read.' NetGalley Review
