(Disturbing) Viral Book Campaigns - "The Gargoyle" Burning Flesh Ad (VIDEO)
[Edit]
[Edit]
Using a viral campaign to promote a book, in this case, The Gargoyle by Andrew Davidson, is still pretty rare. This very graphic and unsettling video is not for the squeamish. The Gargoyle is about a man who suffers unspeakable burns during a car wreck. The video describes, in detail, what would happen if you put your hand, and then your face, on a glowing stove burner, and then pulled it away. Can you smell it? Were you intrigued to read the book? Or just grossed out?  Andrew Davidson: Well, I've never been burned in a physical sense, nor has any of my close family or friends. So when I think about being "burned by love" it is in a figurative sense - and I think that you have summed it up with a nice phrase: "burned by the intensity of passion."
