Britain has lost the Falklands war, Margaret Thatcher battles Tony Benn for power and Alan Turing achieves a breakthrough in artificial intelligence. This near-perfect human is beautiful, strong and clever - a love triangle soon forms.
Bertrams Buyer's Notes:
In an alternative eighties London, in the backdrop to which Thatcher battles Tony Benn for power following the loss of the Falklands, the drifting Charlie purchases an Alan Turing-designed synthetic human and finds himself in a love triangle with love interest Miranda and the robotic purchase. McEwan on provocative and exciting form.
