Told from the perspective of a service robot, this novel examines humanity through mechanical eyes. Tchaikovsky explores labour, obedience, and autonomy with dry humour. The world-building is precise and unsettling. Emotional resonance emerges from constraint. The robot’s journey mirrors social collapse. A sharp, philosophical work.
