A family saga told in electric prose, this fiery debut novel is set over New Year's on the crowded, violent, vibrant streets of Rio de Janeiro
'One of the most marvellous books I've read in years'
Rivka Galchen, author of Atmospheric Disturbances
'A bacchanal of familial entanglements, as beautiful as it is brutal'
Jamie Ford, New York Times bestselling author of The Many Daughters of Afong Moy
Daniel Cunha has a lot on his mind. He got dumped by his pregnant girlfriend, his grandfather just dropped dead, and on the anniversary of the raid that doomed his drug-dealing aunt and uncle, his mother makes her unwanted return to Brazil.
Misfortune, however, is a Cunha family affair, and no generation is spared. As New Year's Eve nears, old secrets are brought to light and the Cunha family hurtles toward an irrevocable breaking point: a fire, a knife, and a death on the sands of Copacabana Beach.
Praise for Tropicalia

The moment you've been waiting for: a beach read set, partially, on a beach - Elle, The 39 Best New Books to Read in Summer 2023
-
A formally mesmerizing, ventriloquial, intergenerational epic about the difficulties of being born into a family. Harold's prose moves muscular and propulsive, somehow managing to stay radiating light and grace no matter how cruel the subject matter
-
Rogers's plot sizzles as much as the Copacabana Beach where the party's fateful events play out. This packs a powerful punch - Publishers Weekly
-
In these vibrant and hypnotizing pages, Harold has given us so much pain, grace, and love that when I finished reading I called my parents just to hear their voices
