Beschrijving uitgever

A classic work of science fiction by renowned Polish novelist and satirist Stanislaw Lem.


When Kris Kelvin arrives at the planet Solaris to study the ocean that covers its surface, he finds a painful, hitherto unconscious memory embodied in the living physical likeness of a long-dead lover. Others examining the planet, Kelvin learns, are plagued with their own repressed and newly corporeal memories. The Solaris ocean may be a massive brain that creates these incarnate memories, though its purpose in doing so is unknown, forcing the scientists to shift the focus of their quest and wonder if they can truly understand the universe without first understanding what lies within their hearts.

Human limitations

A psychological sci-fi, less about technology and space travel, more about being humans and how that muddles everything we experience, even science. Great read!

Please fix the typos.

I would like to purchase and read this book. But already on the first page there are typos. As this is a digital copy and should be easy please make the effort to fix the typos.
So far because of that, I would go for the other translation.
