Stanislaw Lem

Briefly recounts the life of the Polish writer, discusses his novels and major short stories, and examines the themes of his workThis is, perhaps, the first full-length book on Stanislaw Lem in the English language. It is not, however, an exhaustive, scholarly interpretation of Lem's books. Instead, readers will get an overview of his career, biographical background, an indication of what the key books are about, and a survey of the major themes and literary techniques. Richard E.
