Ali Smith & Sarah Wood: Gliff

from London Review Bookshop Podcast · host London Review Bookshop

Gliff, the latest novel from Ali Smith, forms the first part of a duology; its title, the Scots word for a glimpse or shock, will be echoed but not replicated in next year’s Glyph. In a dystopian, Kafkaesque fictional lanscape, Smith explores how we make meaning and are made by it, and what it would actually mean for the next generation to sort out our increasingly toxic world. Smith read from the novel and was in conversation with artist and filmmaker Sarah Wood.
