A Family Saga: Crocodilopolis
John Manuel Arias discusses his novel Crocodilopolis, in which the exiled politician Seth Oreamundo first blames, then plots to kill, his brother Orsario for revealing the secret that ruined both their lives and left Costa Rica changed forever. Ocean Vuong called it “a ferocious meditation on masculinity, legacy, and national myth.” Arias, author of Where We Come From, talks with Fanta Diallo, a senior publicist at W.W. Norton.
