Story
At last, one of the world’s greatest works of science fiction is available - just as author Stanislaw Lem intended it. To mark the 50th anniversary of the publication of Solaris, Audible, in cooperation with the Lem Estate, has commissioned a brand-new translation, unabridged for the first time, and the first ever direct translation from the original Polish to English. Beautifully narrated by Alessandro Juliani ( Battlestar Galactica), Lem’s provocative novel comes alive for a new generation.

Story
Auf dem Planeten Solaris scheinen die Gesetze der Physik keine Geltung zu besitzen. Eine geheimnisvolle Kraft beeinflusst die Bewegungen des geheimnisvollen Ozeans, der die gesamte Oberfläche bedeckt. Als der Wissenschaftler Kelvin auf der Raumstation von Solaris eintrifft, stößt er auf seltsame Anzeichen von Chaos und Auflösung. Die zwei Besatzungsmitglieder verhalten sich merkwürdig, als würden sie von einer unaussprechlichen Furcht beherrscht.

Story
Mit seinen futuristischen Werken war der polnische Schriftsteller Stanisław Lem seiner Zeit voraus. Bereits 1964 beschrieb er mögliche Formen virtueller Realität. In Frieden auf Erden sind die Großmächte übereingekommen, ihre gesamten Waffenarsenale von der Erde auf den Mond zu verlagern. Allerdings weiß niemand auf Erden, was sich auf dem Mond wirklich abspielt, denn die "Doktrin der totalen Unkenntnis" wird strikt eingehalten. Zeit für den Weltraumreisenden Ijon Tichy als Agent der "Lunar Agency" auf dem Mond nach dem Rechten zu sehen.

Story
Eine der großen Dystopien des 20. Jahrhunderts - aber lustig. Hier bleibt Ijon Tichy, der Held so vieler lemscher Erzählungen, ausnahmsweise auf dem Boden, das heißt auf der Erde. Es bedeutet allerdings nicht, dass es ihm hier langweilig würde, ganz im Gegenteil: Er wird beschossen, eingefroren, aufgetaut, betäubt, benebelt, beglückt und bekommt schließlich noch einen Rattenschwanz verpasst. "Der futurologische Kongreß" ist eine der großen Dystopien des 20. Jahrhunderts – allerdings deutlich lustiger als die Konkurrenz von Orwell, Huxley oder Atwood.

Als der Psychologe Kris Kelvin auf einer Forschungsstation auf dem Planeten Solaris eintrifft, findet er eine demoralisierte und psychisch labile Mannschaft vor. Wie Kelvin bald feststellt, halten sich, neben ihm und den beiden Forschern, noch weitere Personen auf der Station auf, was seine Kollegen anfangs jedoch abstreiten. Als plötzlich Kelvins ehemalige Freundin Harey auftaucht - die sich vor einigen Jahren das Leben genommen hat -, wähnt er sich bereits wahnsinnig. Dann findet Kelvin jedoch heraus, was es mit den ungebetenen "Gästen" auf sich hat.
