Books by David Clough

Set in the Yorkshire Dales of the 1950s, Yorkie Boys tells the down-to-earth story of the growing pains of a gang of kids. In a pre-PC world, their behaviour mirrors the innocence of a lost age. Their humorous exploits explore the pains and delights of their early sexual encounters. Mischievous adventures and hilarious conflicts pervade the book in a beautifully-crafted re-creation of post-war Britain, a world without toys, a world where the kids had everything, but nothing. Tragic elements are sensitively drawn in this fascinating portrayal of a forgotten world.

Offers a constructive proposal for the shape of contemporary Christian ethics drawing on persuasive interpretation of the ethics of Karl Barth. The author argues that his ethical thought remained defined by the theology of crisis that he set out in his 1922 commentary on Romans, and that his ethics must therefore be understood dialectically.
