Autorenporträt
Peter Walker is a teacher, priest and poet. His last collection The House of Being won the Local Legend national Spiritual Writing Competition in 2018. After graduating in French and Philosophy, he taught languages for many years while at the same time training for the priesthood. He is nonetheless down-to-earth, loving "red wine and strong coffee, the vibrancy of the inner city and the deserted shoreline at dawn, the music of Muddy Waters and of Vaughan Williams." He is now retired - although, of course, priests never truly retire! Peter is married to Susie, with whom he has a daughter and a grandson.
