Old Church Clock

Richard Parkinson

Old Church Clock, written by Richard Parkinson, is a fictional narrative that explores the life of Robert Walker, a devoted clergyman in the English Lake District. Originally conceived as a short magazine tale, the book critiques the church hierarchy, contrasting the genuine dedication of lower-ranking clergy with the self-serving nature of church leaders. This work highlights themes of faith, morality, and the complexities of religious institutions.
