A young man is fighting for his life. Into his room walks a
bewitching woman who believes she can save him. Their journey will
have you believing in the impossible. The nameless and beautiful
narrator of The Gargoyle is driving along a dark road when he is
distracted by what seems to be a flight of arrows. He crashes into
a ravine and wakes up in a burns ward, undergoing the tortures of
the damned. His life is over - he is now a monster. But in fact it
is only just beginning. One day, Marianne Engel, a wild and
compelling sculptress of gargoyles, enters his life and tells him
that they were once lovers in medieval Germany. In her telling, he
was a badly burned mercenary and she was a nun and a scribe who
nursed him back to health in the famed monastery of Engelthal. As
she spins her tale, Scheherazade fashion, and relates equally
mesmerising stories of deathless love in Japan, Greenland, Italy
and England, he finds himself drawn back to life - and, finally, to
love.
