The Menil Collection and Inprint invite you to hear British ceramist, author, and curator Edmund de Waal speak about his new book The White Road: Journey into an Obsession, an intimate narrative history of porcelain structured around five journeys. Booklist says “[This] passionately and elegantly elucidated story of porcelain, laced with memoir and travelogue, serves as a portal into the madness and transcendence of our covetous obsession with beauty.”

De Waal’s 2010 memoir The Hare with Amber Eyes became an international bestseller, has been published in thirty languages, and won the Costa Biography Award, the Windham Campbell Literary Prize, and the RSL Ondaatje Prize.

Books will be available for purchase and signing.
