Tree-ear is an orphan boy in a 12th-century Korean potters’ village. For a long time he is content living with Crane-man under a bridge barely surviving on scraps of food. All that changes when he sees master potter Min making his beautiful pottery. Tree-ear sneaks back to Min’s workplace and dreams of creating his own pots someday. When he accidentally breaks a pot, he must work for the master to pay for the damage. Though the work is long and hard, Tree-ear is eager to learn. Then he is sent to the King’s Court to show the master’s pottery. Little does Tree-ear know that this difficult and dangerous journey will change his life forever.
Review:
"[The] story is taut with suspense....Park's exotic setting, her compelling characters, and her deft handling of the complicated facts of celadon pottery-making demonstrate her consummate skill."
Ann Waldron, Philadelphia Inquirer, 03/18/2002
