A robot was built to study human emotion. Nobody expected it to feel all of them at once. Unit R-73 was built to study human emotion. Unfortunately, it started feeling emotions instead. At roughly three times the recommended intensity. Now a mildly sad children's movie can trigger an existential collapse, a decent sandwich can restore faith in the universe, and a delayed elevator can become a spiritual crisis with buttons. Assigned to observe humanity in the field, R-73 begins documenting the strange emotional rituals of human life: birthdays, queues, restaurants, small talk, customer service calls, weddings, public transport, and the unbearable psychological weight of almost. The humans call it research. R-73 calls it surviving feelings with paperwork. Perfect for readers who love witty sci-fi, dry humor, emotional absurdity, and stories that are both hilarious and unexpectedly heartfelt.
