A verse novel is a type of narrative poetry in which a novel-length narrative is told through the medium of poetry rather than prose. Either simple or complex stanzaic verse-forms may be used, but there are usually a large cast, multiple voices, dialogue, narration, description, and action in a novelistic manner.
