"To say Gerardo Sámano Córdova exploded onto the literary scene with this debut would be an understatement. The story of a mother who raises a sentient chunk of lung she cut from her dead son – and also the story of the being that grew from that piece of lung – Monstrilio is a wonderfully bizarre and unexpectedly touching narrative about queer love and the things that grief makes people do."
