Dazzling, incantatory future poetry. -- Jeet Thayil
Eipe is an ardent soul. Her work is youthful and wise, signalling a profound interest in destruction, stillness, healing, joy. -- Anne Enright In Auguries of a Minor God, her outstanding debut collection, Eipe sings of joys and wounds felt deeply under the skin . . . [It] is a startling gesture in the face of a threatening world. -- Guardian
