O knihe
Meet Violet Smith-a remarkable blend of robot smarts and girl-next-door allure. One-of-a-kind, and thoroughly convincing, she remains always at a distance from the humans she so desperately wishes to please. And despite her myopic worldview, she can't avoid becoming a flashpoint in a simmering political power struggle.
The Life and Dreams of Electric Snow follows Violet as she navigates relationships in her rarefied world. Her owner, Jason Morgan, is a bored prince who can't quite figure out what to do with her. Jason's high-achieving girlfriend, Adele, is drawn to Violet in ways she can't parse. Meanwhile, Violet's nemesis-Jason's fiery sister, Veronica-threatens her very existence. Casting a shadow over all of their lives is the mystery of Violet's father, her brilliant creator, who sent her to live with Jason for unknown reasons and who has inconveniently gone missing. When an apparent act of terrorism rocks the city-state of Santa Luna, suspicion falls on him and on Violet herself. To save her own life, she must push the boundaries of her capabilities to find answers.
Through Violet's unique voice and very human struggles, we come face-to-face with grave questions about the nature of the soul, the power of embodiment, and the reality of a coming world shared with sympathetic-but not quite human-beings.
