A charming mind-bending and anarchic book of imagined civilizations'Most cosmic civilizations
long for things in the depths of their souls they would never openly admit to...'Trurl and
Klapaucius are 'constructors' - they travel around the universe creating machines of
astonishing inventiveness and power and visiting a bewildering variety of violent peculiar and
morose civilizations. The Cyberiad is oddly reminiscent of Gulliver's Travels The Hitchhiker's
Guide to the Galaxy The Phantom Tollbooth and Alice in Wonderland. Charming mind-bending and
anarchic it is perhaps Lem's greatest work. This edition includes all of Daniel Mroz's
hallucinatory original illustrations.
