Reviews
"Jack Henry's writing is the real deal. No bullshit, no posing.
This is essential American literature."
- Tony O'Neill, "Down and Out on Murder Mile" (Harper Perennial)
I have always admired Jacks writing, his fearless self-revelations
combined with a world-view that is equal parts jaded and
hopeful...the way he turns himself inside out, and then goes down a
little deeper, moves in a bit closer, and, just as you think hes in
for the kill, suddenly]a gentle word, a line so full of such
graceful beauty you get, well, slammed in the face. Again.
- Puma Perl, "Belinda and her Friends" (Erbacce Press)
Jack Henrys poetic voice speaks here again with mastery and
precision...These poems will cut you, then rifle through your
wallet. But they will also reveal vulnerability and humanity while
so doing. This is a book you need.
- David McLean, " Hellbound" (Epic Rites Press)
Jack Henry's large heart, a veteran of wars, accidents, fears,
madness, disillusion, is, in these 80 different dance halls of
image and sound, breaking invisible bread with jesus as the latter
downs his meds with shots of tequila, while on the corner of 6th
and Los Angeles Streets the meteor of hope has crashed into Obama's
tag team and the churches of the sky are rolling across clouds of
Charlie Parker's smoke.
- Scott Wannberg, "Strange Movie Full of Death" (Perceval Press)
