A thoughtful story by a talented writer.
The use of the interaction of humans with humanoid robots as a means to explore what it is to be human is not a new theme, but Zwirsky uses it skillfully in this tightly woven short story to take a poignant look at humanity and human needs. I got this and another of her stories as free downloads on Kindle. I'm now a fan. (Unfortunately, Kindle doesn't seem to have any other of her works.)
Interesting loose ends
I enjoyed it. There's so much more that could be fleshed out in a longer story but sometimes it is thought provoking to wonder about the loose ends.
decent read
The story in this book wasn't to bad. The ending left a lot to be desired. It just kinda stops with no explanation about what comes next in the characters lives. Its rather a depressing story really about a woman so lonley she goes to extreme measures to find someone she can relate to only to be hurt worse then she was before. I like my stories to have a somewhat happy ending and this one fell far from that
