Tony Davidson (b. 1965) is one of Scotland's most controversial and provocative contemporary writers. The novel Scar Culture (1999), Davidson's debut in literature, was immediately recognized by critics as the best book of the year. Davidson brilliantly portrays a sick world and its impact on people's souls. The book was called "An Account of Pure Evil" by the Daily Telegraph. But before treating the disease, you need to make a diagnosis, which is what Davidson tries to do in his novel.
