Synopsis
Foreword by Alice Walker. From the dollmakers of Turkey to the batik artists of Indonesia, women in developing economies provide for their families by creating and selling indigenous crafts which draw on cultural traditions. Often driven by the harsh realities of poverty, these craftswomen come together in groups creating a kind of micro-enterprise, often strengthened into cooperatives through financial aid. In this volume we hear their individual voices, culled from five years of travelling and meeting these resourceful and creative women.

    Typically bungling performance from Evri (Hermes): the package was said to be ‘out for delivery’ on 2 September, but it did not arrive until 8 September, after I had expended much effort in trying to find out what had happened to it. In contrast, top marks for the seller: accurate description, excellent packaging, prompt transport from USA (until Evri got its hands on the package), and good-natured support when I explained the problems I was having with the notoriously inefficient delivery firm.

    Shipping was insanely fast! Packaging super tough! Came as described and beyond the value. One of my new favorite additions to my books.
