A Mass for Arras is a quiet book that sneaks up and mesmerizes you. For the first few pages I anticipated a heavy, philsophical book. A few more pages and I was hooked. Yes, the book is "philosophical" but in the manner of a great novel - it shows concretely how changing beliefs effect daily life. The book reconstructs history in a believable manner while clearly critizing the contemporary world - a book that works on many levels. Add it to your must read list.
