Foundlings: Found Poems From Prose

In Foundlings: Found Poems from Prose, the brilliant and eerie adaptations ingeniously reassemble and revoice the literary canon with remarkable acumen and humor. Much of the enchantment in these "found" poems lies within the sharp perception of the discoverer. Through its multifaceted approach to time-honored works, Foundlings presents a compellingly inventive assemblage that highlights, scrutinizes, and subverts literary discussions on authorship and canonical standing.These are genuinely unprecedented and frequently playful compositions that nod to the literary customs that Henry reinterprets. While Henry recognizes that many of his words have roots in others' works, he showcases the exceptional transformation that engaging and imaginative intertextual references can facilitate-and the marvelous manner in which captivating and alluring modern poetry can arise from creative acts of tribute.
