Lady Face by Madi Goff

The year is 2171 and society is in conflict over the “human” rights of artificial intelligence. In the backstage dressing room of a theatre, during a performance of the absurdist drama entitled Five Madonnas, Joan, a scientist and performer fascinated by human behavior, reunites with an old friend, Micaiah, an artificial intelligence in hiding. Joan and Micaiah’s tension-filled reunion reignites a repressed love triangle, challenging the existence of love in both human and non-human lifeforms.
