Klara es una AA, una Amiga Artificial, especializada en el cuidado de niños. Pasa sus días en una tienda, espe­rando a que alguien la adquiera y se la lleve a una casa, un hogar. Mientras espera, contempla el exterior desde el escaparate. Observa a los transeúntes, sus actitu­des, sus gestos, su modo de caminar, y es testigo de algunos episodios que no acaba de entender, como una extraña pelea entre dos taxistas. Klara es una AA sin­gular, más observadora, más dada a hacerse preguntas que la mayoría de sus congéneres. Y como sus compa­ñeros, necesita del Sol para alimentarse, para cargarse de energía... Narrada por la curiosa e inquisitiva Klara, un ser artificial que se hace preguntas muy humanas, la novela explora la esencia del ser humano y lanza preguntas turbado­ras: ¿qué es lo que nos define como humanos?, ¿cuál es nuestro papel en el mundo?, ¿qué es el amor?...
