Gliff

<p><i>O brave new world, that has such people in''t</i>.<br><br>Once upon a time not very far from now, two children come home to find a line of wet red paint encircling the outside of their house.<br><br>What does it mean?<br><br>It¿s a truism of our time that it¿ll be the next generation who¿ll sort out our increasingly toxic world.<br><br>What would that actually be like?<br><br>In a state turned hostile, a world of insiders and outsiders, what things of the past can sustain them and what shape can resistance take?<br><br>And what¿s a horse got to do with any of this?<br><br><i>Gliff</i> is a novel about how we make meaning and how we are made meaningless. With a nod to the traditions of dystopian fiction, a glance at the Kafkaesque, and a new take on the notion of classic, it''s a moving and electrifying read, a vital and prescient tale of the versatility and variety deep-rooted in language, in nature and in human nature.</p>
