Sidewalk Portrait: Fifty Fourth Floor and Falling by Rick Henry

Rick Henry’s Sidewalk Portrait is audaciously conceived and meticulously crafted. It’s such a winning work of word art in its modernist and pomo impulses that it seems it should have already been with us for decades, like the recently discovered experiment of a lost Oulipo genius. But don’t presume Henry is some dour coffeehouse fixture — this is a fun and vibrant work, full of rewards and child-like enthusiasms. There is really nothing like it.

—Ted Pelton
