About the book
"Dear Sweet Harry is Lynn Jenners first collection of poetry - the autobiography of an obsession linking the authors own family history with that of two famous deceivers, Harry Houdini and Mata Hari. In an act of imaginative will Jenner assembles factions and ephemera, poems and scraps that summon in a glow of light other diverse characters, objects and places: France, ham radio, World War I, trains, TB, her grandfather Harry (who saw Houdini perform in London), Katherine Mansfield and Paraparaumu. Dear Sweet Harry is a tender and virtuoso Hey presto! with a global reach and an offbeat charm, unlike anything else in New Zealand literature."--Publisher description.
