Futurological Congress: From the Memoirs of Ijon Tichy (Harvest/HBJ) | 
On a roll, I've been reading a book a day. Lem is hit or miss for me, I either love his books or am indifferent. We'll see which way this one goes.
pickI don‘t normally reread books, but this one with its crazy premise has been on my mind a lot recently. The chatty, playful bits haven‘t aged all that well, but the overall build-up remains great.
pickTerrific and funny and prophetic book. Like Philip K. Dick writing in the style of Woody Allen‘s short pieces. The bit about computers shirking their programming seems to be coming true. #sf #1970s #futurology #lem
Took a break from reading to watch this movie which, as it turns out, is based on a novella by Stanislaw Lem. Very loosely based, I'd say. The movie is animation bookended by live action and stars the impeccable Robin Wright.
