Reading for Writing – Poetic Turns

In May/June Joanna Preston is offering a Reading for Writing format class that examines the wonderful world of the Poetic Turn. Why do poems change course? And how do they do it? What can you add to a poem by leaping off in another direction? Based on the book Structure & Surprise: Engaging Poetic Turns by Michael Theune, this class will examine ways that poems can weave extra levels of complexity, and prompt us to open our work up to new possibilities.
