Caliban’s Redemption Dive into a surreal journey of prose-poetry and Dadaist verses as Parry’s alter-ego, Caliban, explores queer identity, existential isolation, and raw passion through a Shakespearean Noir lens.

Capturing Caliban’s metaphysical musings on love, violence, and selfhood, Parry unveils a poetic rebellion, questioning the true nature of redemption and romantic transcendence.

Does Browning or Nietzsche really understand redemption as Caliban does? Discover what it means to surrender to pure, unapologetic selfhood on an island of mystical desire.

‘One of the few, if not only, works of Gnostic Fantasy in modern times. An “edge” literary movement, re-evaluating received perspectives on classical works and discovering “gnosis”, in the sense of a Knowledge of our human hearts. Beautiful, invigorating and strikingly lucid. Its images need weeks to fully unpack, while its disturbing implications haunt a reader’s unsettled moods’ – Daniele-Hadi Irandost FRSA, founder and curator of TEDxLambeth

‘It is a descent into an underworld and a return as a sweat and semen-stained, dirty, ugly, angry and very empowered God’ – Charlotte Rogers, award-winning author of P is for Prostitution

‘Parry is particularly adept at descriptions of the tenebrous side of life. He paints numerous pictures of darkness and evil in a very persuasive manner’ – Dr Bernard Hoose, former lecturer of Moral Theology at Heythrop College, University of London

‘Parry’s poetry traverses inner worlds reminiscent of those of Lautréamont, Bataille and the demonologist Collin De Plancy’ – Richard Rudgley, author and Channel 4 television presenter
