Readers are planted in a universe of cold vacuum where time itself becomes torture when a sentient droid loses its only companion, a digital pet named Cooper, in David Polfeldt's inventive and melancholic science fiction novel, BURNS. Darkly humorous and surprisingly tender, Polfeldt explores the existential horror of eternal isolation while showing that even an immortal machine can learn what happiness means, after a palpable struggle to process the grief from the loss.
