Eileen Tabios is interviewed by John Bloomberg-Rissman for ARDUITY. We are grateful to him and editor John Armstrong for the extremely generous space and introduction to the interview. It’s the first time Eileen feels an interviewer has asked the EXACT right question about her poetry, to wit, “What is hard—arduous—about your poetry?”
Here’s an excerpt:
