[lbo-talk] I'm so depressed -- Stanislav Lem dead

[Chris Doss]

Andy F:Dang.  His work tempts me to learn
Polish.---Man, I am so depressed. Solaris was the
first book I ever read in Russian (I know, translated
from Polish). A wonderful writer -- I read Pirx the
Pilot over and over as a kid. Lem and Philip Dick are
my favorite sci-fi writers, even if Dick, in a
schizophrenic moment. believed that Lem was a KGB
agent. Overall, I'm just really sad.

Didn't Isaac Asimov an edition of Soviet/Soviet-block
sci-fi? He was a Russian-speaking Ukrainian Jew, I
believe?

Once again, I'm really depressed. When Larry Niven
dies, it will be a catastrophe! What will happen to
Known Space? ;)

Nu, zayats, pogodi!
