Communication Breakdown: The Novels of Stanislaw Lem
His novels are novels of ideas. That alone is a good reason to read him. Still, ideas come in many flavors. Even authors who focus on them, have varying degrees of skill at dealing with them. They can hide as well as reveal much about the writer's philosophy and sense of life. These questions are a skeleton his tales give flesh to. The other side of this equation is how the reader reacts to Lem's work. As a stylist and storyteller is he easy to read and humbly poetic? Or tedious and over-cerebral? Or mysterious? Or does he ramble on incoherently? Are the places, technology, people, and aliens he creates scientifically believable, since most science fiction places a high value on this quality? To show how the two sets of questions interact and can be separated, think of an author's works whom you ideologically disagree with, yet are still entertained by and on a certain level find real. Since Lem is a science fiction writer, let's use another example from science fiction: Bruce Sterling's Heavy Weather . This is a story about storm chasers in the near future, after society basically collapses and the weather has gone wild. This is a novel which I found believable and captivating, yet I did not buy into Sterling's environmental message or his dark commentary on free markets. This did not stop me from seeing his characters as real people or his world as basically true to form. Somehow, his story telling ability and his skill at painting seemingly real gadgets plus melding the two was not sunk by other things in this novel.

Description
Bringing his twin gifts of scientific speculation and scathing satire to bear on that hapless planet, Earth, Lem sends his unlucky cosmonaut, Ijon Tichy, to the Eighth Futurological Congress. Caught up in local revolution, Tichy is shot and so critically wounded that he is flashfrozen to await a future cure. Translated by Michael Kandel.
Customer Reviews
Unique I love How indifferent the narration is to everything. When a Molotov cocktail ignites several people in the hallway of the hotel, it is merely stated,as though the narrator is unfazed by the event. Hilarious and psychopathic. Only Stanislaw Lem could think this way;really weird and random things.

A deeply involved commentator and participant of reality or merely a skeptical observer of the theatrum mundi? What habits and antipathies does the author betray to his readers? What problems wake him in the middle of the night? Stanislaw Lem’s most recent book poses questions that are both universal and specific, disquieting and surprising, current and almost eternal: Can we safely consume the fruits of our freedom? How do we choose from among products that are all "necessary"? When do we need to be brought back to earth? What are the limits of professionalism? What more do we need if we have Big Brother? What do the Taliban and post-modernists share? Should politicians read opinion polls? Can anything - anything at all - still be foreseen?

Powers' fine Scriptorium ... page on Lem. Introduction During the Soviet era, Polish writer Stanislaw Lem was the most celebrated SF author in the Communist world. Although he read Western SF when he was young, he soon found it shallow and turned for inspiration to the long tradition of Eastern European philosophical fantasy. Western readers not familiar with this tradition often misread his works, expecting more action-oriented, technophilic fiction. Solaris comes closer to being a traditional SF novel than most of his works, but its main thrust is still philosophical. There is a deep strain of irony which runs through this work, for all its occasionally grim moments. The great Russian experimental director Andrei Tarkovsky made an important film based on the novel which is considerably more confusing that the book. (For more information about Tarkovsky and his film, see http://odin.he.net/~solaris/tarkovsky/

Covers
Inspection at the Scene of the Crime "Inspection at the Scene of the Crime" is one of the most original of Lem's novels.  At first glance a political satire, best understood by the witnesses of the cold war, "Inspection..." is  a serious intellectual attempt at creating a model of a future civilization.  How to secure an equilibrium, safety and – for individuals – a meaning of existence?  What technology should replace Nature or God? How to address the emptiness and suffering that even this protective, but "cold" and impersonal technology cannot remove from the life of planet's inhabitants?  Ijon Tichy, getting to know the remote Encja, seeks answer to these questions – and many others. covers Lem says reviews
Balloon to Solaris
The 1960s and 1970s were the era of one writer. Lem set the boundaries of the genre; Lem defined the genre; all young writers reflected Lem and competed with Lem. How could one author so completely dominate an entire literary category? It’s simple: he was quite simply a genius, with a mind that could fully display its powers precisely within the domain of science fiction.
