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
