Glyph

In Glyph, literary master Ali Smith weaves a poignant tale of ghosts, history, and family legacy, exploring the intricate connections between the past and present. When Petra and her sister Patch confront a haunting from their childhood, the novel delves into themes of imagination, care, and resistance in an increasingly divided world. As Petra, now estranged from Patch, encounters a phantom horse in her bedroom years later, the story invites readers to reflect on the histories that shape us and the importance of solidarity and decency in tumultuous times. With its rich narrative and social conscience, Glyph stands as a vibrant reminder of the light that can emerge even in darkness.
