Minute-Operas

Minute-Operas

Frédéric Forte
4.3/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
Frédéric Forte’s Minute-Operas are poems “staged” on the page. A simple vertical line of 3 inches separates what Forte calls the stage and the wings. The poet explores the potential of this form with multiple typographic games, calling on different registers of the language, different poetic techniques and, in the second part of the book, by “fixating as minute-operas” 55 existing poetic forms

The poems of Minute-Operas also constitute, in their cryptic way, a journal of the poet’s life during the period of composition : his love life, the loss of his father…

It was shortly after the publication of this book, in 2005, that Frédéric Forte was elected a member of the Oulipo.
