That book is wonderfully unsettling. The ending was perfect.


The star diaries are my favourite, more whimsical. I'm very fond of his robot stories. I've never re-read the Memoirs, they were .. very unsettling. As was the futurological congress. Solaris is too overlayed by the Tarkovsky film for me now, i used to make shredded paper to hang in my office airvents as a homage.


Peace On Earth is my favourite Lem by a long way. The English translation has aged better than Memoirs, too.
