Tales of Pirx the Pilot
Tales of Pirx the Pilot | Stanislaw Lem
2 posts | 2 read | 1 reading | 1 to read
In Pilot Pirx, Lem has created an irresistibly likable character: an astronaut who gives the impression of still navigating by the seat of his pants-a bumbler but an inspired one. By investing Pirx with a range of human foibles, Lem offers a wonderful vision of the audacity, childlike curiosity, and intuition that can give humans the courage to confront outer space. Translated by Louis Iribarne. A Helen and Kurt Wolff Book

This book sitting unread on my shelf qualifies for #LongLongWayFromHome. Given my deep disinterest in such topics, it shall likely remain unread for the foreseeable future.

SUNDAY AFTERNOON USED BOOK HAUL #4 of 7

I'd vaguely heard of the author, but not the novel. It looks fun! And it was in brand new condition for $5.
