A Robot in the Garden is a gem of a first novel, perfect for anyone who has ever found it difficult to connect with the world. What would you do if you found a robot in your back garden? For 34-year-old Ben Chambers the answer is obvious: find out where it came from and return it home, even if it means losing his wife in the process. Determined to achieve something for once in his life, Ben embarks on a journey that takes him and the endearing robot, Tang, to the far side of the globe... and back again. Along the way Ben begins to change, subtly at first, and then in ways that only become clear on his return to the house he's always lived in. | |
