Collaborations - Softcover

Van Troyer, Gene

 
9780979192135: Collaborations

Synopsis

Collaborative poetry in the English language has always been a little like the poor relative invited to the banquet as a charitable gesture - something of an afterthought and not taken very seriously. Thus, it is poetry that is usually available only in small literary journals and chapbooks, and must be sought out with some dedication by those with an interest. Collaborations offers an eclectic mix of poetry drawn from other publications and gathered together for the first time. While books like this are scarce, collaborative poetry is indeed alive, robust, and flourishing, especially on the internet in blogs and mass or collaborative poetry web sites like The Spoonbill Generator.
