OT: Stanislav Lem

[Nomis]

It's very sad to me, too. Stanislaw Lem was the great person and writer.

One of the first.. maybe even the first S-F book I've ever read was his 'Tales of Pilot Pirx'... I was about twelve or thirteen years old. 'Tales...' are obligatory reading in secondary school in Poland, but it was true, really enjoying, obligatory reading.

Thanks him I started reading the others great S-F authors like Isaac Asimov, David Breen, Artur C. Clarke.

Later I've read few other his books and my favorite ones 'Solaris' and 'The Unvanquished'. Now I see that I haven't read all his books. Time to make up for this.

I'm the lucky one... I don't need translated versions.
