the polish cosmonaut - kafka with a sense of humor  - a shiny surfaced communist sort of science fiction - directly descended from voltaire - hyper lingual, political, imaginative - one of the great writers of false prefaces and introductions - highly recommended, and not just for ‘solaris’ - from the bureaucratic satires of vaclev havel to the psychological murking of heinlein’s juveniles, his darker myths and his comic dystopias make for excellent company -
