Paul Hostovsky's poems have won a Pushcart Prize, two Best of the Net Awards, the Muriel Craft Bailey Award from the Comstock Review, and numerous chapbook contests. He is the author of eight books of poetry, most recently The Bad Guys (FutureCycle Press, 2015). He makes his living in Boston as a sign language interpreter and Braille instructor.
Paul's narratives are powerful and relatable - but most importantly doing what great poetry does and that is search for the truth. As a fellow poet, I marvel at his adeptness and comfort with words - he is a master of his craft and it is clear by the way the writing is never center stage - the ideas are. An absolute joy to read.
