Christine Breen-Williams
Writer, Homeopath, and Gardener Christine has a B.A. from Boston College and a M.A. in Anglo-Irish Literature from University College, Dublin. Before moving to Ireland she was a copy editor for ‘The American Journal of Medicine’. She has co-authored four books of non-fiction about living (and travelling) in Ireland with her husband, novelist, Niall Williams which were published by Soho Press, NYC.
- O Come ye Back to Ireland
- When Summer's in the Meadow
- The Pipes are Calling
- The Luck of the Irish
She has also written a travel book, So Many Miles to Paradise, about a nine month journey she and Niall and their two children took around the world.
She likes to write about gardening and books, and health and homeopathy. And she is a registered homeopath with the Irish Society of Homeopaths. She is co-editor of the homeopathy pages at All Things Healing.
She and her husband hold writing workshops every summer in their home in Kiltumper, but rain or shine, you will usually find her in her cottage garden.
Currently she is one of 12 writers partaking in the Masterclass program at the National Academy of Writing in London. The working title of her novel is called 'Which We Call a Rose.'
