FINDING PHOEBE is a parable for our times. By fertilizing animal eggs with human sperm, Dr. Phoebe Carlyle creates human-animal hybrids. Since creating the first ever cybrid - her Little Cat-Girl - she is rumored to have created several more chimeras by mixing human cells with animal embryos. Naturally, she has become a notorious scientist considered to be every bit as unsavory as Dr. Frankenstein. Accused of playing God, creating monsters, part animal, part human, blurring the genetic distinctions between man and beast, she is reported to be in hiding somewhere in Mexico. This novel documents the author's attempts for more than 15 years to find her and tell her story.
