Adventures of the Artificial Woman
Ellery Pierce creates a mechanical woman named Phyllis to be the perfect companion--sexually and otherwise. But, quite unexpectedly, her mind develops to the point where she can have opinions and desires and act on them--and she walks out on Ellery in pursuit of stardom in Hollywood. As Phyllis's career escalates from stripper to starlet, Ellery becomes her manager, and engineers her big moment--a rendezvous at the White House with the president. Thomas Berger's neo-Frankenstein (or twisted Pygmalion) tale takes hilarious delight in lampooning many infinitely lampoonable aspects of modern life, from TV to politics.
