<p>Meet Boris&mdash;a gentle robot equipped with curiosity, ingenuity, and the ability to mix the perfect martini. Designed as an integral part of a &ldquo;house of the future&rdquo; known as Z&uuml;k&uuml;nfthaus, this recreation specialist finds his programming insufficient when the future is different than expected. Boris distracts himself from anxieties through dancing, cocktails, costumes, pillow fights and road trips.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
BORIS: ROBOT OF LEISURE is a graphic novel that blends retro-futuristic science fiction, mid-century cocktail culture and silent comedy into a timely and surprisingly human story of one robot&rsquo;s pursuit of happiness and fulfillment.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Set in our post-atomic age, BORIS: ROBOT OF LEISURE reflects the reality of the early 21st century&mdash;society has abandoned space-age novelties like robot helpers and fully automated homes, leaving Boris and his Z&uuml;k&uuml;nfthaus as relics from an unrealized future. The world of The Jetsons never came to pass. But then, Boris has more fun than their maid Rosie ever did.</p>
