THE GOSPEL OF GARGOYLE
by James Harpur
with art by Paul Ó Colmáin.
We are very proud of our latest publication, The Gospel of Gargoyle by poet and member of Aos Dána, James Harpur.
A poet residing at the Irish College in Paris has a series of dreams in which he flies to the rooftop of Notre-Dame cathedral and encounters a gargoyle. But not any old gargoyle: this one can speak, and he claims to be a lost spirit seeking salvation through a series of incarnations. Gargoyle and Poet become unlikely companions, bound by a pact: in return for the poet’s visits and conversations on the great questions of life (conversations he hopes will free him from his stone incarceration), Gargoyle promises to reveal the answer to the question obsessing Poet: who or what caused the great fire of Notre-Dame in 2019.
The book costs €15 plus p&p. It is a numbered limited edition production and bound with stitched signatures. It is signed by the author and the artist.
