The ingenious and uncanny borrowings in Foundlings: Found Poems from Prose remix and redub the literary canon with dazzling insight and wit. So much of the magic of the 'found' poem resides in the acuity of the finder. In its textured approach to classic works, Foundlings is a powerfully inventive bricolage showcasing, quizzing and subverting literary debates about authorship and canonicity.

Industry Reviews

‘These are truly original and often ludic works that gesture honourably and sometimes insouciantly toward the literary traditions that Henry both refers to and shrewdly recasts. Even as Henry acknowledges that many of his words originated with others, he demonstrates the extraordinary alchemy that engaged and creative intertextual gestures allow—and the wonderful way in which fresh and beguiling contemporary poetry may emerge through inventive acts of homage.’ — Cassandra Atherton, author Prose Poetry: An Introduction (with Paul Hetherington); and Leftovers: Prose Poems.
