Nine science fiction stories about robots!Feminist twists, sentimental journeys, nostalgia and an Australian icon feature in this collection of short stories. These tales draw from an imagined past, with ’Be Still My Beating Clockwork Heart’. They delve into Australian icons with Clancy of the Overflow recast in space with robot sheep in ’Clancy’. These stories dabble in the life of an augmented soldier in ’The Cleansing’, an immortal woman and her android bodyguard in ’Bodily Control’ and robot baby-sitters in ’Crash Baby’ and ’Robot Heart.’ A future where technology is entwined with human lives, such as an AI boyfriend in ’Bee Friend’, or deep technology integration in ’Winnie’s Remedial Reading and Writing Class’ and the ultimate twist in ’The Discontented Wife’.
