Stanislaw Lem Reader, A
Peter Swirski
This collection assembles in-depth and insightful writings by and about, and interviews with, one of the most fascinating writers of the twentieth century. Anyone interested in Lem's provocative and uncompromising view of literature's role in the contemporary cultural environment, and in Lem's opinions about his own fiction, about the relation of literature to science and technology, and the dead ends of contemporary culture, will be fascinated by this eclectic collection.
"A writer worthy of a Nobel Prize." --New York Times
"[Lem is] the best science fiction writer working today in any language." --Newsweek
