An Alien at St Wilfred's (by Adrian Plass)

'An Alien at St Wilfred's' is a novel by Adrian Plass.

This is a most unusual story. It features a little alien who appears to a handful of selected people. They all belong to the rather small and dying church of St Wilfred's.

The alien calls himself Nunc. He has a profound effect on four different members of St Wilfred's. It's a thought-provoking book without being preachy at all.

I'd read this before, but thought it well worth re-reading.

Highly recommended.

A longer review of 'An Alien at St Wilfred's is here, when I re-read it again a few years later.
