Inkokt ruda

At a time when everyone talks about artificial intelligence, this short, dense novel genuinely asks what separates a person from a machine, and so what makes us human. It plays out as a triangle in a small space involving a couple and a robot, a lovesick and tormented Werther 2.0, touching on love, memory and sex, with T. S. Eliot turning up as a penguin. Its view of the future dwells on the beauty and flaws of human beings.
