The Prose Poetry Project: an introduction and five vignettes
View through CrossRef
The Prose Poetry Project (PPP) is comprised of a group of people who, working independently and collaboratively, focus on writing rather than analysing prose poems. Because of this, and because the PPP emerged out of practice and not out of scholarship, they have not paid much (explicit) attention to discussions about the definition of the prose poem, the structure of prose poems and what form can be considered poem rather than prose or fiction.
