Monstrilio by Gerardo Sámano Córdova. A delightfully weird tale of grief, family and belonging. A poor little monster must bear the human expectations of parents who just want their son back, whilst fighting his animal urges. I loved Monstrilio 🥹

Monstrilio by Gerardo Sámano Córdova is the story of loss & grief, told by four different people, or rather, by three humans and one monster. Though the demarcation line between humanity & monstrosity could not be thinner - hence the beauty of the book. A sensual, emotive, and evocative read.

Monstrilio Gerardo Sámano Córdova Dead Ink Books is an absolute monster of a book, it will eat you whole and leave you wanting more. It starts as a small lump of lung and grows and grows as the baton is passed between narrators. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
