There are famous/accomplished poets who at some point decide to try the prosaic form. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Whatever the outcome, the prose they write is different stylistically from their peers in the word trade. The emphasis on the style of writing and its connection to poetic expression is the focus of this book selection. The format makes it possible to check out major poetic works of these wannabe novelists.

Location: Maison des Associations, salle Albert Jacquard
Starting time: 7:15 pm sharp
