Across the cosmic wilderness, an intrepid voyager confronts rogue machinery, spaceborne hazards, and the comic limits of human reason.
Ijon Tichy, Lem's Candide of the Cosmos, encounters bizarre civilizations and creatures in space that serve to satirize science, the rational mind, theology, and other icons of human pride.
Whether bickering with his own duplicated selves trapped inside gravitational vortices or outwitting an insubordinate autopilot on a planet of disguised robots, Tichy navigates the galaxy with unflappable, bewildered logic.
In subterranean ruins, mechanical friars debate theological dogmas in dried-up sewers, while alien delegations and erratic calculators reduce the grandest sidereal ambitions to glorious farce.
