Stanislaw Lem was one of the world’s most widely read science fiction writers, so why don't people talk about him more? In episode 315, Join Luke Elliott and James Bailey as they take their first visit the truly alien world of the novel, see the differences in translations first hand, learn about Lem’s attitude towards American SciFi of the time, consider humanities reason for space exploration, and consider whether it is even possible to find the true meaning of this book, or any work of art for that matter. Join them next when they will watch & review Andrei Tarkovsky’s adaptation of “Solaris” and vote on which is ultimately better: the book or the movie!
