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.
