90 classic titles celebrating 90 years of Penguin Books

Journey into space with Polish sci-fi master Stanislaw Lem. The whimsical time-loops of Ijon Tichy's cosmic adventure The Seventh Voyage are reminiscent of Douglas Adams. Meanwhile, the spectral whispers haunting Pirx the Pilot as he navigates his spaceship to Mars in Terminus, echo the author's masterpiece Solaris.

Then The Mask introduces a perfect robot assassin and poses the question: can AI fall in love or refuse its programming? What if the target of its affections is also its prey?
