Product Description

Review
"A treasury of trash, a wonderfully weird collection...a fascinating glimpse into the wackier depths of America's collective subconscious". - The Washington Post "What's more irresistible than reading a letter not meant for your eyes? ... A quirky lens into the flotsam and jetsam of humanity". The Chicago Tribune

Product Description
We've all found things in random places - an undelivered message, a heart's deepest secret confessed, a random doodle lying on the floor, a shopping list and picked it up to wonder about the people and the story behind it. "Found" is a magazine that collects items that have been lost, dropped, cast aside or simply forgotten in a rush, and makes them found again. With no limit on what it could be, every item tells a part of a different story, but they are all fascinating, whether they are hilarious or sad, beautiful or aggressive, or just utterly, inexplicably random, and they all offer a glimpse into the life of someone, somewhere. This book simultaneously appeals to the curious, nosy side in all of us and yet is a moving, captivating collection that reminds us what being human is all about.
