Gliff - Ali Smith

Once upon a time, not very far from now, two children come home to find a line of wet red paint round the outside of their house . . . 

So begins the freewheeling and urgent new novel from Ali Smith – the story of two young people and a horse called Gliff, on the run from history as it takes a turn for the worse.
