In Pilot Pirx, Lem has created an irresistibly likable character:
an astronaut who gives the impression of still navigating by the
seat of his pants-a bumbler but an inspired one. By investing Pirx
with a range of human foibles, Lem offers a wonderful vision of the
audacity, childlike curiosity, and intuition that can give humans
the courage to confront outer space. Translated by Louis Iribarne.
