"Solaris" книга века!

Группа посвящена роману "Солярис", самому великому роману Великого польского мыслителя Станислава Лема (1921-2006)! Solaris is a Polish fiction novel by Stanisław Lem (1921-2006), published in Warsaw in 1961 and probably his most famous work. The novel uses remote space exploration as a metaphor whether the human mind will ever understand a truly alien life form. While the narration suggests that humans study the planet, the opposite seems to be the case, where Solaris examines the secret, often guilty thoughts of men, which in the novel are given physical form and which invade the space station, disturbing the routine. The novel is pervaded by a powerful and moving poetic sense of remoteness and loneliness. The novel is about the ultimately futile attempt to communicate with an alien life-form on a distant planet. The planet, called Solaris, is covered with a so-called "ocean" that is really a single organism covering the entire surface. The ocean shows signs of a vast but strange intelligence, which can create physical phenomena in a way that science has difficulty explaining. The alien mind of Solaris is so inconceivably different from human consciousness that all attempts at communication are doomed (the "alienness" of aliens was one of Lem's favourite themes; he was scornful about portrayals of aliens as humanoid).
