There’s more to a good narrative poem than telling a story in lines rather than paragraphs. In this workshop, we will examine the distinction between lyric and narrative poetry and look at some contemporary poems that combine both. We will also discuss the varying perspectives from which a story can be told and the techniques that poets have used to lift their words above the level of simple, straightforward storytelling.
