Description
Daddy Boy by Emerson Whitney follows one man's journey as he leaves behind a decade-long relationship and embarks on a storm chasing tour across America. After feeling suffocated by submission, he stumbles upon an advertisement for the adventure of a lifetime. As he travels with a group of strangers in a van, staying in budget motels and eating convenience store snacks, Emerson is forced to confront his past and question his identity. The book is a deeply personal exploration of transness, aging, and the search for meaning. Through his experiences on the road, Emerson recalls his adoptive father and biological father, two men who embody different aspects of masculinity. As he navigates the vast prairies of America, Emerson begins to wonder if he wants to be like Daddy - a question that haunts him throughout his journey. A poignant and thought-provoking memoir, Daddy Boy is a story about self-discovery, identity, and the complexities of human relationships.
