NEW BOOK - POLISH EDITION

A new edition of one of the most famous books by Stanisław Lem!

Robot Cartoons was first published in 1964. Since then, they have been constantly entertaining and surprising with their originality. In this book, Lem, as the title suggests, combined seemingly alien worlds: he moved the fairy-tale action into space, and replaced the princesses and wizards with intelligent and, above all, emotional machines. The result is a work that defies any classification, a work that can be read by younger readers, but also by demanding science fiction lovers, sparkling with brilliant humor and extremely funny grotesque.

In the world of Lem's robots, there are many sensitive and good beings, but there are also those who want to impose their vision of reality on others at all costs. Doesn't this remind us of something?

From the publisher:

"Robot Fairy Tales" is a funny cross between science fiction literature and traditional fairy tales. Their uniqueness lies in the fact that fairy-tale plots take place in a cosmic setting, the heroes are mechanical beings, and the role of sorcerers and fairies is played by learned constructors. In Stanisław Lem's "cosmic fairy tales", carefree parody and fun mix with serious problems, and it is up to the reader what conclusions he can draw from the lessons taught by fairy-tale robots.
