Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to all the most common questions about Prague Summer Program.

The reality is that the ratio of folks most interested in prose to those most interested in poetry is roughly six to one. We have to accommodate that fact by conceiving one of the two workshops as "multi-genre." But the fact is that our classroom mentors almost all began as poets, were trained, if you will, as composers of verse and segued into prose.
