Jaded, "maidenless," hyper-sensitive. Savoy Matviyenko is a biracial femoid at odds with the world. Not a female incel, or a normie "feeeemale," but someone caught in the murky interstices between the two. When she isn't doom-scrolling the dark recesses of the deep web, drawing digital p*rn for sicko clients, grinding away at a dead-end job, or lurking in dingy comedy clubs with her slovenly roommate, Dax, she fancies herself a future botanist, a would-be comedian or poet, a present-day edgelord who's totally not like other girls.

Once Savoy starts "courting" (stalking) Avery Bazin, a burgeoning sculptor with a penchant for Cioran, her underlying psychological imbalances tip her towards instability. Her delusional notions of romance-spurred on by her tumultuous upbringing and neurotic idealism-steer her into a crash course of self-reconciliation. Can a hopelessly romantic femoid keep it together long enough to find love in today's caustic, chronically online culture? Or is an ADHD-riddled "BPD baddie" like Savoy destined to be forever alone with her pet slugs (ಥ_ಥ)? After an unhinged stand-up debut that almost lands her in the can, and some (kwazy) time spent on the brink of s*icidal collapse, Savoy must overcome the loathing of her era and find her way back to Earth.

Femoid is a metamodern novel whose hybrid pastiche of styles reflects the fractured mindset of Gen Z and the pluralized toxicity they were born into. It embodies a new alternative archetype in literature, giving shape to an urgent ethos for a disoriented generation.
