Foundlings is a literary press founded and headquartered in Buffalo, NY, and with an office in Los Angeles, CA. The press is committed to printing and promoting the best writing, with a special attention to championing neglected or misrepresented authors as well as providing a platform for emerging voices. With a core catalogue of English-language poetry and poetry criticism, the press also publishes creative nonfiction and fiction, and is home to the imprint The Public Books, dedicated to full-length works of journalism, cultural criticism, and history, and operated jointly with the staff of Western New York’s The Public newspaper. Though it is adamantly without religious, political, or ideological affiliation, the press takes its ethic and aesthetic from Canon 1115 of the Roman Catholic Church, which pertains to the salvation of orphans of unknown parentage: “Foundlings are presumed to be legitimate until the contrary is proved.”
