The first book to concentrate on the early ceramic work of 'Transvestite Potter', bestselling author, broadcaster and social commentator Grayson Perry.

Grayson Perry: The Pre-Therapy Years delves into the artistic origins of one of today's most popular artists, known for his flamboyant persona and playful pots. For the first time, this book explores Perry's early artworks from 1982 to 1994, which played a pivotal role in establishing his reputation. It also examines his emergence as a commentator on contemporary culture and his development into the identity of 'the Transvestite Potter'.

The book features an essay by Grayson Perry himself, reflecting on this formative period of his life.
