High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles A Perfect Vacuum (Polish: Doskonala pr żnia) is a 1971 book by Polish author Stanislaw Lem. It is an anthology of reviews of nonexistent books. It was translated into English by Michael Kandel. A Perfect Vacuum can be seen as a compilation of Lem works: some of the reviews remind the reader of drafts of his science-fiction novels, some read like philosophical pieces across scientific topics, from cosmology to the pervasiveness of computers, finally others satirise and parody everything from the nouveau roman to pornography, Ulysses, authorless writing, and Dostoevsky.
