Field notes
The five collections separate author monographs, first books, Atlantic co-editions, short cordel-inspired essays, and writing on image theory. The homepage gives unusually concrete production details for Coroas: 240 × 300 mm, 144 pages, Portuguese and English, and a stated run of 500 copies plus 40 numbered copies. Calunga 01 is marked “No prelo” for 2027; that is a listed forthcoming title, not evidence of a completed release.
