Essay Topics

1.

Although Annie is technically a robot, the novel’s main preoccupation is with the gendered and sexual dynamics she finds herself in. Why might Greer have chosen a sci-fi setting and a robot to explore the gendered and sexual dynamics of heterosexual relationships?

2.

Why is Annie’s status as a surrogate for Doug’s ex-wife significant to the novel’s themes? How does Doug’s own past complicate Annie’s journey toward self-determination and autonomy?

3.

How does artificial intelligence function as an allegory for marginalized people within the narrative? Why might Greer have chosen a “Cuddle Bunny” over a different model to illustrate this allegory?
