Summary |
"The protagonist, 'One,' is suddenly within the glyph, whose walls project scenes One can enter, and One does so. Other beings begin to materialize, and it seems like they (and One) are all survivors of a global disaster. They board a ship to flee to another dimension; they decide what they must save on this Ark are words, and they gather together as many as are deemed fit to save. They 'sail' and meanwhile begin to change the language they are speaking, before disembarking at an abandoned future city"-- Provided by publisher |
