(1981-    ) Irish author, mostly of nonfantastic fiction for the Young Adult market; she is of sf interest for the Near Future Hey, Zooey (2024), not written for an age group, which is set at a time when Android companions, fitted out for unlimitedly pliable Sex, have become part of the cultural landscape. The tale itself follows the complicated intertwinings of Zoey, one of these artifacts, the man who has ordered her, and his wife, who finds herself increasingly thinking of Zoey as a kind of Doppelganger. Sex is involved. The narrative turns internal, a move signalled by some indifference (see Mainstream Writers of SF) to the level of corroborative detail necessary to embed the ménage in an achieved world. [JC]
