Gliff : a novel / Ali Smith.
"From a literary master, a moving and genre-bending story about our era-spanning search for meaning and knowing. Gliff explores how and why we endeavor to make a mark on the world. In a time when western industry wants to reduce us to algorithms and data--something easily categorizable and predictable--Smith shows us why our humanity, our individual complexities, matter more than ever"-- Provided by publisher.
