Book

Return From the Stars (1989)

Отпуската ми тече добре, чета на ден по три книги и съм много доволен."Завръщане от звездите" е реално първата книга от Библиотека Галактика. Първите книжки Синият тайфун и Двойната звезда тогава бяха неоткриваеми, тази се появи през 1979 г по книжарниците. Бях на 13 и книгата ме впечатли силно. ...

The Star Diaries: Further Reminiscences of Ijon Tichy (1985)

Um destes dias tenho de procurar uma biografia ou estudo literário sobre a obra deste singular escritor polaco de Ficção Científica. Gostaria de perceber se o que dele se conta é real. Se a historia, provavelmente apócrifa, de Lem ser um escritor apaixonado pela FC anglo-americana que impedido de...

Book

The Cyberiad (2002)

L'unico altro libro di Lem che abbia letto è Solaris e posso dirvi tranquillamente che non sembrano frutto della stessa persona: Solaris è un romanzo profondo, complesso e pieno di interrogativi circa la natura dell'uomo per i quali l'autore non fornisce risposta alcuna. Diversamente, Cyberiade è...

Book

His Master's Voice (1999)

This extraordinary novel from the favorite writer of my youth, Stanisław Lem, defies categorizations. While on the surface it is a suspense novel or a "mystery" (more precisely, a scientific and philosophical mystery/suspense), it is actually more of a treatise on the human species' place in the ...

Book

The Chain of Chance (2000)

This was my first Lem, and I picked it up "by chance" as it were, at a used book sale a few months ago. I don't usually read "speculative" fiction, but Lem is considered to be one of the genre's great masters, perhaps best known for "Solaris" which has twice been made into a film."The Chain of...

Book

A Perfect Vacuum (1999)

In the first sentence of A Perfect Vacuum, Lem acknowledges his debt to Jorge Luis Borges. He doesn't acknowledge the full extent of it (he merely says that Borges is among those who've tried the review-of-fake-books concept before). Knowing it would impede my enjoyment of the book, I couldn't he...

Book

Eden (1991)

Science-fiction is a difficult genre to map out. At an earlier time, perhaps the term dictated certain ideas that we now identify as "old school" science-fiction: rockets shooting off to space, alien contact that was often, especially in the 1950's, paralleled with communism scares, exploring the...

Book

Tales of Pirx the Pilot (1990)

My first foray into Lem, Pirx the Pilot, is a good, if subtly flawed work. In it are five adventures of the titular hero, from his first test run as a simple-minded cadet to a tale of a transport ship where Pirx is the grizzled commanding officer. His personal biography between adventures is on...

Book

Solaris (2002)

When I was a kid my dad was obsessed with the idea of UFO’s and alien contact. He made me and my brother watch endless episodes of trashy American documentaries about sightings and abductions. In fact, I sat through so many of these that I started to have nightmares about bug-eyed extra terrestri...

Book

The Investigation (1986)

In this novel, Lem departs from his normal batch of science fiction, and uses a detective story to probe the nature of reality, and man’s rational means of discovering it. The plot revolves around a Doyle-esque detective story and a plague of reanimating corpses. A detective uses all rational mea...

Memoirs of a Space Traveler: Further Reminiscences of Ijon Tichy (2000)

Memoirs of a Space Traveler is the second book in a row I have read by Lem. The first, Pirx the Pilot, was good. This one is a classic and a revelation.In it, Ijon Tichy recounts his numerous adventures, including trips to other planets, encounters with mad scientists and their terrible inventi...

Book

The Invincible (1973)

Science-fiction u punom smislu riječi, i to čak sa starog kontinenta. Sram me priznati što se prvi put susrećem s ovim poljskim velikanom, SF-a Stanislawom Lemom; no zadovoljstvo i čast upoznavanja je bilo moje. Tema je prvi susret, krstarica Nepobjedivi dolazi na naizgled pusti planet Regis III,...

Book

Peace on Earth (2002)

At the outset of this tale, mankind has indeed managed to bring about peace on earth, but there’s a problem, and the redoubtable space adventurer Ijon Tichy (who figures into a number of Lem’s earlier writings) has been brought in to solve it. The major powers of Earth have realized that weapons ...

Mortal Engines (1992)

review of Stanislaw Lem's Mortal Engines by tENTATIVELY, a cONVENIENCE - July 28, 2015 I suppose, strictly speaking, this isn't 'a bk by Stanislaw Lem' insofar as it's a collection of short stories by Lem, united by the theme of robots, chosen by the translator, Michael Kandel, at the prompting o...
