At last, one of the world’s greatest works of science fiction is available - just as author Stanislaw Lem intended it. To mark the 50th anniversary of the publication of Solaris, Audible, in cooperation with the Lem Estate, has commissioned a brand-new translation, unabridged for the first time, and the first ever direct translation from the original Polish to English. Beautifully narrated by Alessandro Juliani ( Battlestar Galactica), Lem’s provocative novel comes alive for a new generation.

Story
Die Sammlung Sterntagebücher ist eine Zusammenstellung verschiedener Reisen der großen Sternfahrer Pilot Pirx und Ijon Tichy sowie der beiden Roboter Trurl und Klapauzius. Der Autor Stanisław Lem schickt den Hörer weit in die Zukunft und vermittelt ihm auf scharfsinnige und humoristische Weise erkenntnistheoretische, psychologische, soziologische und ethische Aspekte. So werden Fragen zur Intelligenz und zum Eigenleben von Maschinen ebenso behandelt, wie die Begegnung des Menschen mit sich selbst (anhand von Zeitschleifen) oder die Relativität subjektiver Eindrücke.

Auf dem Planeten Solaris scheinen die Gesetze der Physik keine Geltung zu besitzen. Eine geheimnisvolle Kraft beeinflusst die Bewegungen des geheimnisvollen Ozeans, der die gesamte Oberfläche bedeckt. Als der Wissenschaftler Kelvin auf der Raumstation von Solaris eintrifft, stößt er auf seltsame Anzeichen von Chaos und Auflösung. Die zwei Besatzungsmitglieder verhalten sich merkwürdig, als würden sie von einer unaussprechlichen Furcht beherrscht.

Stanislav Lem gelingt es in "Robotermärchen", seine dichterische Gabe der Erfindung mit der wissenschaftstheoretischen Erfassung von Problemen der Zukunft sowie mit spekulativer Kraft zu verbinden, wobei die letzte Realität dieser sonderbaren Wesen nicht die Wissenschaft, sondern die Sprache ist. Dabei sind die Robotermärchen Sprachkunstwerke mit unbestechlicher Brillanz, mit Variationsreichtum und auf der Ebene der Parodie, des Wortwitzes und an sprachlicher Virtuosität unübertroffen.

Eine der großen Dystopien des 20. Jahrhunderts - aber lustig. Hier bleibt Ijon Tichy, der Held so vieler lemscher Erzählungen, ausnahmsweise auf dem Boden, das heißt auf der Erde. Es bedeutet allerdings nicht, dass es ihm hier langweilig würde, ganz im Gegenteil: Er wird beschossen, eingefroren, aufgetaut, betäubt, benebelt, beglückt und bekommt schließlich noch einen Rattenschwanz verpasst. "Der futurologische Kongreß" ist eine der großen Dystopien des 20. Jahrhunderts – allerdings deutlich lustiger als die Konkurrenz von Orwell, Huxley oder Atwood.
