Science fiction writer Stanislaw Lem has died. He was a brilliant man whose books I enjoyed. He’ll be missed.

  2. Hm. I only read one Lem book (the Investigation), and I must confess it did nothing for me. In fact, I was really annoyed by the non-explanation at the end.

  4. The only Lem book I’ve attempted to read was Solaris, and (possibly due to the double-translation), I found it unreadable. 🙁

  5. Oh, that’s sad. I loved “Memoirs Found In A Bathtub”
