Science FictionSynopsis
Aboard a deep-space vessel, a simulacrum of Sigmund Freud — complete with the psychoanalyst's memories and personality — is tasked with maintaining the crew's mental health during their harrowing interstellar journey. As Freud's replicant grapples with his own existential crisis while attempting to counsel others, the novel becomes a darkly comic meditation on identity, the limits of psychoanalysis, and what it means to be human even when you are not.
