Andrew J. Calis (Born November 27, 1987) is a Palestinian-American poet and teacher and the author of Pilgrimages (Wipf & Stock), published in 2020, and Which Seeds Will Grow? (Paraclete, 2024).
Calis has taught at Mount St. Mary's University, his alma mater, as well as West Virginia University, where he earned his MA in English, and at The Catholic University of America where he earned a Ph.D in 2019. He is an associate editor of two literary journals, Dappled Things[1] and Convivium.[2]
His poetry and essays have been published in The Atlantic[3], America[4], and he has been nominated for numerous awards including:
Kevin Robles has analyzed the fragmentary style of Calis's poetry, writing, "Every story, every anecdote, every line feels uncertain; or, to use Calis’s term, 'shattered,'"[7] and Sophia Feingold has written that "Calis’s is also the sort of writing that repays rereading."[8]
