IN DEVELOPMENT

The Hierarchies

By Ros Anderson

Sylv.ie is a synthetic woman. A fully sentient robot, designed to cater to her Husband’s every whim, her existence barely tolerated by his human wife and concealed from their child.  As Sylv.ie learns more about the world and her place within it, something shifts inside her. Is she malfunctioning, as her Husband thinks, or coming into her own?

Set in a recognizable near future and laced with dark, sly humor, Ros Anderson’s deeply observant debut novel is less about the fear of new technology than about humans’ age-old talent for exploitation. In a world where there are now two classes of women – “born” and “created”– the growing friction between them may have far-reaching consequences no one could have predicted.
