{"product_id":"9780241665572-secondhand-gliff","title":"Gliff","description":"The first of two new interconnected novels from bestselling, Booker Prize-shortlisted author Ali Smith\n\nO brave new world, that has such people in't.\n\nOnce 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.\n\nWhat does it mean?\n\nIt's a truism of our time that it'll be the next generation who'll sort out our increasingly toxic world.\n\nWhat would that actually be like?\n\nIn a state turned hostile, a world of insiders and outsiders, what things of the past can sustain them and what shape can resistance take?\n\nAnd what's a horse got to do with any of this?\n\nGliff 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.","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50898861359323,"sku":"9780241665572-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/8c43312f-c883-43c3-b2f3-204e7970269d.jpg?v=1792681974","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/9780241665572-secondhand-gliff","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
