David J. Oldman


Born
The United Kingdom

Born into the austerity of post-war Britain, David J Oldman began writing in his early twenties and is now unable to break the habit. Frequently humorous, and often deceptively moving, his books are an examination of ordinary people caught up in life-changing events beyond their control. He presently lives with his wife in the New Forest in the south of England, adjusting to a life just beyond his own control while pursuing his deep interest in history, writers and writing

“According to Father O’Dowd’s description, the seminary catered to both ends of the religious life, training the next crop of young men taking holy orders and providing a retirement home for those closer to discovering if they’d backed the right horse.”
David J. Oldman, The Unquiet Grave

“It’s a cliché——but still also a truism——that the victor writes the history; but he also convenes the court——or erects the scaffold, or merely find a convenient wall to stand his victims against.”
David J. Oldman, The Unquiet Grave
