A brilliant and incisive satire of the Soviet pseudo-science research of the Cold War, with a new introduction by Adam Roberts.
When young programmer Aleksandr Ivanovich Privalov picks up two hitchhikers while driving in Karelia, he is drawn into the mysterious world of the Scientific Research Institute of Sorcery and Wizardry, where research into magic is serious business. Where science, sorcery and socialism meet, can chaos be far behind?
Biographical Notes
Arkady Strugatsky (1925-1991) and Boris Strugatsky (1931-2012) began to collaborate in the early 1950s after Arkady had studied English and Japanese and worked as a technical translator and editor and Boris was a computer mathematician at Pulkova astronomical observatory. Their work includes HARD TO BE A GOD, DEFINITELY MAYBE, THE SNAIL ON THE SLOPE and MONDAY BEGINS ON SATURDAY. Andrei Tarkovsky's much-admired film, STALKER, was based on their most famous work, ROADSIDE PICNIC.
