A man enters the android-making business and falls in love with a mysterious woman in this novel from the author ofDo Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?In this lyrical and moving novel, Philip K. Dick intertwines the story of a toxic love affair with one about sentient robots, and unflinchingly views it all through the prism of mental illness-which spares neither human nor robot. The end result is one of Dick's most quietly powerful works.When Louis Rosen's electronic organ company builds a pitch-perfect robotic replica of Abraham Lincoln, they are pulled into the orbit of a shady businessman, who is looking to use Lincoln for his own profit. Meanwhile, Rosen seeks Lincoln's advice as he woos a woman incapable of understanding human emotions-someone who may be even more robotic than Lincoln's replica."In his top form, Philip K. Dick rivals Kurt Vonnegut."-New York Times
