Pythonic way to create a long multi-line string

Question

I have a very long query. I would like to split it in several lines in Python. A way to do it in JavaScript would be using several sentences and joining them with a +<

Answer 1

I found myself happy with this one:

string = """This is a
very long string,
containing commas,
that I split up
for readability""".replace('\n',' ')
