About Author

Alasdair Gray

Alasdair James Gray (28 December 1934 – 29 December 2019) was a Scottish writer and artist. His first novel, Lanark (1981), is seen as a landmark of Scottish fiction. He published novels, short stories, plays, poetry and translations, and wrote on politics and the history of English and Scots literature. His works of fiction combine realism, fantasy, and science fiction with the use of his own typography and illustrations, and won several awards. [source](

Description

The Reverend Mr Kelvin Walker, the Queen's chaplain in Scotland,has made no secret of his visit to London as a young atheist in 'the swinging sixties', or the doings which led to his conversion there. Even so, this detailed account of the scandal by Alasdair Gray caused the real Reverend Mr Walker real pain when it was first published in 1985, and roused more antagonism in the Scottish press than any other book. - Blurb of The Fall of Kelvin Walker by Alasdair Gray
