Sumptuous and inspiring!
Well, Grayson Perry excelled himself with the tapestries themselves and the book has not let his enthusiasts down either. The book is a wonderful insight into the thought processes of the artist and exceptionally coherently written, but also a work of art in its presentation - truly beautiful cover and the highest quality of illustrations. I will treasure it forever.

Perry's Soul in Words
Purchased as a Christmas present and I must say it was received with delight. A very neat small format book which, I understand, is the perfect accompaniamet to Perry's tapestry. For my own opinion, I would have rathered the publishers created this in a larger format since that could have been done for a modest extra cost but the recipient of my gift was delighted nonetheless.

Vanity of Small Differences by Grayson Perry
This book shows Grayson Perry's creative processes in designing for his tapestries. The Vanity of Small Differences. I bought it as I had visited his exhibition at the Miro Gallery and had also followed the television series dedicated to the making of the work which was a fascinating insight to Grayson and the people with whom he came into contact while researching the work. The book is an excellent complement to the above, and is beautifully bound with a fabric cover.It is a pleasure to hold and read. It demonstrates Grayson Perry's humour and humanity, and a sharp overview of our modern society. Wonderful.

Wonderful book. I love Grayson Perry's work and have seen these tapestries more than once. So much detail. Book is great as has fold out colour prints of all 6 tapestries and information about all the background, the meanings, the making of them, and lots more.
