Invasion from Aldebaran

The short prose of Stanisław Lem is a whole array of fantastical, philosophical, and grotesque plots, in which a multitude of themes are raised: from the misadventures of inept governmental officials to the development of biological weapons and contact with alien intelligence. This book includes selected stories from 1924 to 1945, as well as the collections "Sesame" and "Invasion from Aldebaran".
