The Seventh Voyage by Stanislaw Lem

The Seventh Voyage by Stanislaw Lem

90 classic titles celebrating 90 years of Penguin Books

Journey into space with Polish scifi master Stanislaw Lem. The whimsical time-loops of Ijon Tichy’s cosmic adventure in ‘The Seventh Voyage’ are reminiscent of Douglas Adams, while the spectral whispers haunting Pirx the Pilot as he navigates his spaceship to Mars in ‘Terminus’ echo the author’s masterpiece Solaris. Finally, ‘The Mask’ introduces a perfect robot assassin and asks, can AI fall in love, or refuse its programming? What if the target of its affections is also its prey?

Stanislaw Lem (1921-2006) was born in Lviv, then part of Poland. He is probably the most original and influential European science-fiction writer since H.G. Wells. Best known in the West for Tarkovsky's film of his novel Solaris, Lem wrote novels and stories that have been published all over the world. He is credited with anticipating in his writing artificial reality, e-books and nano-technology. His most famous works include The Cyberiad, Mortal Engines, The Star Diaries, The Futurological Congress, Tales of Pirx the Pilot and Solaris.
