R.I.P. Stanisław Lem

[czeri]

I can't believe it. I've just learnt Stanisław Lem died today. He was one of my favourite authors, and "Dzienniki Gwiazdowe" ("Star Diaries") is by far the best book ever written. Seriously. It's both hilarious and deeply philosophical, serving as the perfect example of why sf is the best literary genre known to men.

I think I'll go re-read it now.
