PROSE POETRY eBOOKS from
CENTRETRUTHS DIGITAL MEDIA
Introducing
EVOLUTION
An e-book of prose poems by John O’Loughlin
Which can be previewed via the link
below the following brief Centretruths editorial:-
The sixteen
prose poems in this collection should be ideally suited to those who prefer
their poetry prosy and mainly concerned with philosophical issues or, at any
rate, with a philosophical treatment of issues and subjects that could be treated
more frivolously if one lacked the intellectual machinery and moral insight
with which to tackle them in this way. I
suspect that John O’Loughlin’s first attempt at prose
poems, back in Dosshouse Blues (1973-5),
was more poetically frivolous than is to be found here; though that would be in
keeping with his work of the period. Ten
years later and the results are far more interesting, with perhaps a hint of Baudelairian influence here and there, albeit without
conscious intention on his part. However
that may be, these prose poems are not essays, whatever appearances might
suggest to the contrary, but painstakingly contrived pieces which never part
company with the context in which they were conceived. - A Centretruths
