The aim of this article is to familiarize Anglo-American audience with seven Polish science fiction novels written in the communist era: Farther than Hatred (Dalej niż nienawiść) by Wojciech Bieńko (1963) Aspasia (Aspazja) by Andrzej Ostoja-Owsiany (1958) To Drain the Sea (Wyczerpać morze) by Jan Dobraczyński (1961) Arsenal (Arsenał) by Marek Oramus (1985) Paradisia (Paradyzja) by Janusz A. AngloAmerican readers know only fragments of Lem’s literary work, and they know almost nothing about other Polish science fiction writers. Summary/Abstract: With the exception of Lem’s works, Polish science fiction of the communist era is largely forgotten. An eerie and creepy story, deeply intellectual and sometimes hard to grasp, but unforgettable nonetheless. Published by: Wydział Filologiczny Uniwersytetu w Białymstoku Keywords: science fiction novel Polish communist era Wisniewski-Snerg’s intellectual powers and conceptual gifts put him somewhere in the realm of Stanislav Lem, but without that author’s sense of humour and great sense of irony.
