An extraordinary debut novel of love that survives the fires of hell and transcends the boundaries of time.
Awakening in a burn ward after being horribly burned in a terrible car accident, the cynical narrator is visited by a beautiful and enigmatic sculptress of gargoyles who tells him that they had once been lovers in medieval Germany.
The Gargoyle
He looks tired. If I had a seat, I would give it to him. This is the moving story of an old gargoyle, forced off his rooftop to make way for a new development in a barren cityscape, and the child who encounters him on an overcrowded train.
