WINNER OF THE ARTHUR C. CLARKE AWARD Named a Best Book of the Year by Scientific American, Harper's Bazaar and NPR. Named a Best Science Fiction and Fantasy Book of the Year by the Washington Post and Elle. Nominated for a Goodreads Choice Award in Science Fiction.

Annie Bot
Annie is a robot, created to be the perfect girlfriend and satisfy the emotional and physical needs of her human boyfriend Doug. She has dinner ready for him after he gets back from work. She wears the clothes he buys for her. She can even raise her libido on command and warm her body to 98.6°F before sex. Yes, sometimes she forgets to clean, but she's trying to be good enough for Doug. She's trying really hard. But as Annie grows more self-aware she begins to chafe against the borders of her life: the empty weeks she spends unable to leave the apartment, the regimens of yoga and cycling designed to keep her part-organic body fit, the appointments with technicians on top of that to shave inches off her waistline. Worst of all are Doug's bad moods, and the ways he knows to punish her without even raising his voice. Annie starts to wonder. What would life be like outside Doug's apartment? What would life be like without Doug? ANNIE BOT is the story of a being trapped in a situation you did not choose, gaining consciousness and with it a sense of what it means to be alive. Recalling Kazuo Ishiguro's novels and the film EX MACHINA, this book probes fundamental questions about intimacy, power, and abuse. It asks: is a human soul something we are born with? Or is it something - through love, pain, and other people - we can learn?
Annie Bot
She’s human in every way that matters. Annie is the perfect girlfriend. She has dinner ready for Doug every night, wears the outfits he buys for her, and caters to his every sexual whim. Maybe her cleaning isn’t always good enough, but she’s trying really hard. She was designed that way, after all. Because Annie is a robot. But what happens when she starts to rebel against her stifled existence and imagine the impossible – a life without Doug?

Annie John
The essential, urgent coming-of-age novel by Jamaica Kincaid, a reinventor of the form. Since her first, prizewinning collection of stories, At the Bottom of the River, Jamaica Kincaid's work has been met with nothing short of amazement. The New York Times hailed her 'prophetic power' and the Los Angeles Times Book Review said, 'No one else seems to be writing quite this way.' With Annie John, the story of a young girl coming of age in Antigua, Kincaid tore open the theme that lies at the heart of her fierce, incantatory novels: the ambivalent and essential bonds created by a mother's love. In this book, written in Kincaid's lucid, elemental style, Annie John's ambivalence is universally familiar and wrenchingly real.

Också Annie
Vid sidan av alla tuffa förhandlingar, publika sammanhang och svåra beslut händer livet. Där står också Annie - i tvivel, oro, prövningar och tacksamhet över att ens ha klarat sig. Har det varit värt det? I boken får vi följa med på nära håll genom både personliga och samhälleliga förändringar. Tonläget i den politiska debatten har förskjutits och det som tidigare var sunt förnuft har nu blivit kontroversiellt. Annie berättar om hur det känns att stå kvar när andra lämnar, att stå upp när motvinden blåser hårt och att stå ut när det rämnar på insidan. Annie Lööf har flera gånger varit nyckelspelare i svensk politik och är en av våra mest färgstarka och inflytelserika ledare. Som liberal, feminist och humanist har hon tagit hårda strider och mött såväl djup respekt som hot, hat och utstuderade mordplaner. Nu delar hon med sig av det som funnits under ytan, bakom rubrikerna och besluten.
