This book has been hailed as unique and one-of-a-kind, with a presentation of the author writing poetry about the pottery and the potters. "I often feel very moved," the author says, "by art that soars above the rest, as does the brilliant Mata Ortiz pottery, I wanted to honor their work with original poetry."Samuelson has gone beyond what would be a normal book about pottery by offering bilingual passages throughout the book. "So many books printed in America cannot be read by people in Mexico, so I wanted people on both sides of our American Southwest "Borderlands" to be able to enjoy this stunning book of photography and poetry," Samuelson said.
