R. S. Thomas is recognised globally as one of the major poets of the twentieth century. Such detailed attention as has been paid to the religious dimensions of his work has, however, largely limited itself to such matters as his obsession with the ‘absent God’, his appalled fascination with the mixed cruelty and wonder of a divinely created world, his interest in the world-view of the ‘new physics’, and his increasingly heterodox stance on spiritual matters. What has been largely neglected is his central indebtedness to key features of the ‘classic’ Christian tradition. This book concentrates on one powerful and compelling example of this, reading Thomas’s great body of religious work in the light of the three days that form the centre of the Gospel narrative; the days which tell of the death, entombment and resurrection of Christ.

Revelation: A Reader’s Companion – Preserving Perspective. – This book is the sixth in a series of scriptural novels. It concludes with the aged apostle John helping churches preserve the perspective that Jesus Christ is King of kings and Lord of lords to the glory of God the Father. Scriptural novels present a problem when weaving fact with fiction, leaving readers wondering exactly what is true, which betrays my purpose: to grasp the truths of eternal life. Yet I hope a living encounter with the historical setting, such as I offer, will provide a framework for grappling with the meaning of Scripture in personal terms.
