Lover, lover—parting was such sweet sorrow, but sweeter, still, to find you here again. This week, we got the vibrant and ingenious Seattle poet Paul Hlava Ceballos to sit down with us and talk about bananas, beginnings, and being dope. It's bananas! B-A-N-A-N-A-S!
Paul Hlava Ceballos is the author of banana [ ], winner of the AWP Donald Hall Prize for Poetry, the Poetry Society of America’s Norma Farber First Book Award, and a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award. His collaborative chapbook, Banana [ ] / we pilot the blood, shares pages with Quenton Baker, Christina Sharpe, and Torkwase Dyson. He has fellowships from CantoMundo, Artist Trust, and the Poets House. He has been featured on the Poetry Magazine Podcast, Seattle’s the Stranger, and his work has been translated to Ukrainian. He currently lives in Seattle, where he practices echocardiography.
