A Single Shard, by Linda Sue Park, a story about an orphan boy in 12th century Korea who apprentices with a potter in the seaside pottery village of Ch'ulp'o.
and
The Universe in a Single Atom: The Convergence of Science and Spirituality by His Holiness the Dalai Lama.
As a pottery lover with a deep interest in East Asian history, art, and village life, I am finding Park's book very enjoyable.
The Dalai Lama's book is of interest for the subject matter and because I admire and resonate with His Holiness' curiosity and eagerness to learn.
