Description

A moving and genre-bending story about our era-spanning search for meaning and knowing

Set in the present day, Gliff begins when a young woman inherits a suitcase from her dead grandmother, with no information other than the word "GLIFF" on the luggage tag. Unsure whether it's someone's name or a description of the contents, she opens it to find a thin piece of collaged parchment--a mix of worn waxy fabric and a dry and brittle substance she can't place.
From a Scottish word meaning a "transient moment" or "faint glimpse," 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 dimensionality matters more than ever.
