The Cyberiad

Fables for the Cybernetic Age. 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.
