Book launch: Gerardo Sámano Córdova presents Monstrilio 
In conversation with Akil Kumarasamy

Gerardo Sámano Córdova arrives on the scene with his singular and uncompromising literary horror debut, Monstrilio, one of the most anticipated books of 2023. 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 threaten to destroy this fragile second chance at life. Greenlight is honored to welcome Gerardo Sámano Córdova to our Fort Greene events stage, with special guest Akil Kumarasamy (Meet Us by the Roaring Sea) moderating, and celebrate the launch of Monstrilio.
