How about trying a novel in Spanish?  Amores Virtuales is one of the most astounding novels I've read in recent years.    Dr. Ulises Blanco is a recently widowed psychiatrist who consents to online therapy via an avatar representing his beloved mentor, also deceased.  Some of the machine-driven therapy is effective and some causes him to blunder magnificently.  This plus his relationships with his existing human clients make for interesting novelistic twists.  The author is a practicing psychotherapist so expect some weighty reflections on the life process and on self-revelation.
