About Burn: "When the embers of a blaze drift upward over the spindrifts of a churning time, we receive Henning's language in curlicues of smoke. The poems in Burn meditate on what comes after the ash, pondering how we must have moved forward with our hands extended outward into the miracle of the open air. Her splendid lyrical words return us again and again to the clearing where somehow, despite it all, we are still able to breathe."— Oliver de la Paz, author of The Diaspora Sonnets
