In a not-too-distant future, humanity’s best and brightest have gone underground after radiation has devastated the world. Generations later, coping with life inside an artificial habitat, they’re relying on implanted chips that simulate everything from adventures in nature to the very flavors of their daily meals. After government rejections, Anna and Oliver fight against adversity to have a child of their own. Oliver brings home a robot companion named Arthur for Anna to train as an assistant to the blind. Will Anna’s connection to this machine make her the mother she has always dreamed she’d become?  “[Kazan has] created a slyly detailed alternate universe that is both an extrapolation of the world we know today and its own consistent entity.” —The New York Times.
