I love this book. I am rough on books. As a matter of fact, I really only have time to read while in the tub...so the pages get wrinkly. Usually, I give my wrinkly books away for others to read or donate them but this book......I carefully smoothed out the edges, let all the pages air dry and then put it on my shelf to be read again (a rarity, I assure you). The assemblage of stories, the absolute nothing left feeling this book can impart and the fulfilling redemption (tinged with heartache) you achieve...it's more than many books can deliver. I am hopeful that more will follow.

"The Gargoyle" is one of the more intriguing reads I have undertaken in quite some time. The book starts off in a somewhat jarring style, seeming to flit from place to place with little warning or direction. However, over the course of the book, the pieces begin to coalesce into a story that is breathtaking in its tragedy and surreal nature.
Anyone looking for something a bit off the beaten path of typical fiction would do well to consider this one. The fact that it is Davidson's first effort makes the book that much more impressive.

I found the book easy to finish, hard to forget and impossible to forgive. This book drags the unwitting reader through 700 years of earthly life, hell and a burning car wreck before it returns you to a bus stop somewhere between disappointment, resentment and love lost. I would recommend this book to anyone who is addicted to class a drugs and living with their parents.
