Poetry Anthology. This fifth collection to come out of The Venice Poetry Workshop (now referred to as The Wednesday Night Workshop) contains poems by 34 writers. Ranging in form from prose paragraphs to one-word lines and in style from explosive in-your-face street-smart to tender and lyrical, this collection has something for everyone. It provides readers with a sense of what the writing scene is like in Los Angeles, and with a historical and contemporary perspective on this long-standing writers' workshop.
