From a literary master, the much-anticipated follow-up to the highly celebrated novel Gliff.
The New York Times has said of Ali Smith that "few writers on the world stage are producing fiction this offbeat and alluring." NPR has called her "flat-out brilliant." The Chicago Tribune has called her "one of the rarest creatures in the world: a really fearless novelist." With Gliff she brought her remarkable talents for the first time to a work set in an uncertain future, a novel described by Vogue as "chilling...Orwellian...a vivid portrait of a decaying civilization." And now with Glyph she gallops us back through history to tell a story hidden within the first, a story set in a moment of cultural revolution that examines in her trademark wit and intellect and compassion how we make meaning and how easily it can be lost forever if we don't hold on to those essential qualities that make us human.
