Poetry; Places & peoples: pictorial works

Daddyland: The Complete Edition brings together the trilogy - The Search, The Hunt,

and The Journey - into one final reliquary. A gospel of desire and ruin, it transforms queer ache into relic and longing into shrine. Through poems, confessions, and flames that never go out, Walter Red bears witness to the saints we loved too hard, the wounds we kissed too late, and the fire that still burns in the chest of the one who remembers.

Parts of this work were previously published in separate volumes: The Search (2018) and The Hunt (2019). The Journey now appears in print for the first time, completing the arc. This Complete Edition not only collects the three volumes but also includes newly expanded backmatter and the Emblem Legend - a reliquary of the work's sacred symbols.
