A
religious sister, teacher, poet and Reiki Master, Eileen Curteis has followed
a varied and unconventional spiritual path, ever-moving as in the mythology
of the gypsy. Eileen’s new risk-taking poems venture into the complex
aspects of life and relationships. Although her work is resurrectional,
she addresses with poignant clarity the fears and shadows of being human.
In her accessible lyrical style, rich in visual imagery and photography,
Eileen the poet, invites you to jump on her caravan and travel with her
on a journey inward.
