Sobre este item
Avon 29959 ($1.50), First Avon Printing September 1976, "First Paperback Appearance. The Modern Master of Science Fiction." MMPB, 192 numbered pages, pictorial wraps (surreal naked figure walking into distance). Condition: Near Fine. Crisp copy, clean pages, tight binding, minor edgewear. Theodore Sturgeon described Memoirs Found in a Bathtub as "A well-wrought nightmare indeed."Lem himself describes the book as a "combination of grim weirdness with humor". He writes that the novel goes beyond casual political satire: it puts forth the "totalization of the notion of intentionality". Explaining the concept, he writes that everything which humans perceive may be interpreted by them as a message, and that a number of "-isms" are based on interpreting the whole Universe as a message to its inhabitants. This interpretation may be exploited for political purposes and then run amok beyond their intentions.(Courtesy Wikipedia).

Sobre The Peculiar Old Cat and Fiddle Bookshop
The Peculiar Old Cat and Fiddle Bookshop has a passion for fine and rare books covering all things art, all things music, 19th Century literature and culture, fine illustrations and modern firsts. The Cat digs artistic and counter-cultural movements, and also of course the unusual and the curious (hence the "Peculiar" in the name). The Cat's yen for the 19th century (including art, fashion, affairs, exploration) is possibly influenced by living in a 19th century brownstone, a future gallery for the store.Selling online since 2003 with great customer feedback - if the customer is happy, we are happy.
