A genuinely scary” horror debut written in prose so beautiful you won’t want to rush” about a boy who transforms into a monster a monster who tries to be a man and the people who love him in every form he takes (Ana Reyes) Grieving mother Magos cuts out a piece of her deceased eleven-year-old son Santiago’s lung. Acting on fierce maternal instinct and the dubious logic of an old folktale she nurtures the lung until it gains sentience growing into the carnivorous little Monstrilio she keeps hidden within the walls of her family’s decaying Mexico City estate. Eventually Monstrilio begins to resemble the Santiago he once was but his innate impulses—though curbed by his biological and chosen family’s communal care—threaten to destroy this fragile second chance at life. A thought-provoking meditation on grief acceptance and the monstrous sides of love and loyalty Gerardo Sámano Córdova blends bold imagination and evocative prose with deep emotional rigor. Told in four acts that span the globe from Brooklyn to Berlin Monstrilio offers with uncanny clarity a cathartic and precise portrait of being human.
