Sci-Fi

This romantic science fiction novel follows a neurotic 37-year-old who orders an adanced Robodoll, hoping she will be his new sex object. Instead he discovers a robot who doesn’t look like a robot and is more advanced than he is, including knowing how to love. Along the way Henry not only becomes intimately acquainted with the most technologically advanced orgasm reflex he has ever encountered, but also with a robot that can speak 66 languages, sing opera, dance ballet, cook international cuisine and read people’s minds. A surprisingly funny fantasy adventure with an underlying psychological meaning, it follows Henry as he introduces his robodoll to society and finds out who she is and what she can do. The more he introduces her to society, the more complicated his life becomes. The novel reaches a turning point when she joins a pick-up softball game in Central Park and stuns everybody with her amazing performance, thereby provoking attention from the FBI, Hollywood, the New York Yankees and various others, sending Henry into a meltdown. ROBODOLL is a novel that indirectly probes not only the meaning of love but also the meaning of life, and is reminiscent of classics like Brave New World, 1984 and Gulliver’s Travels.
