| − | | caption = | + | | caption = A truly great European writer, Stanislaw Lem (1911-2006) transcends both Polish literature and his chosen form of science fiction. Best known for his twice-filmed novel Solaris, he was a virtuoso storyteller who packed his writing with philosophy, comedy, and allegory. This evenings rich centenary celebration features contributions by writers John Gray, Toby Litt and Wojciech Orliński, and film makers Ari Folman (currently filming Lem's The Futurological Congress as follow up to Waltz with Bashir) and The Brothers Quay. Chaired by BBC broadcaster Rosie Goldsmith. |
