Notă biografică
Adam
Wisniewski-Snerg(1937-95)
was
born
on
the
outskirts
of
Warsaw.
His
science
fiction
writing
is
largely
focused
around
the
consequences
of
totalitarianism.
Although
largely
unread
during
his
lifetime,
after
his
suicide
in
1995
his
work
began
to
receive
major
critical
attention.
He
is
now
considered
to
be,
along
with
Stanislaw
Lem,
one
of
Poland's
greatest
science
fiction
writers.
Recenzii
Robot's
technical
proficiency
and
ontological
ambitions
could
be
compared
to
those
of
Lem
at
his
best,
and
its
author,
like
Lem,
considered
himself
less
an
sf
writer
than
a
prose-writing
philosopher
of
metaphysical
inclinations.
With
its
powerful
vision
of
a
society
of
slaves
controlled
and
abused
by
a
mysterious
Mechanism
and
a
stimulating
theory
of
Superbeings,Robotwas
almost
immediately
recognized
as
an
instant
classic
which
catapulted
Snerg
to
the
rank
of
Poland's
best
sf
authors
