- bdjsiqoocwk 2y agoI think in this context western isn't meant as the geographical term but as the cultural term. In that sense Poland is a very western country.
- k1musab1 2y agoI second this. Lem is one of the best sci-fi writers I've come across. I would also recommend "The Year's Best Science Fiction" edited by Gardner Dozois, first to 35th editions.
