Havana, April 3 (RHC)--The Polish Embassy in Cuba has announced details of the day of fantasy and science fiction literature, which will bring closer the work of prominent exponents of letters from that country.
The proposal, inserted in the agenda of activities of the diplomatic representation in Havana within the Month of Europe in Cuba, will pay tribute to the writers Stanislaw Lem and Andrzej Sapkowski, with the conduction of José Miguel Sánchez Gómez.
Members of the Cuban Fantasy and Science Fiction Club will join the meeting, whose agenda includes literary presentations, debates and audiovisual exhibitions derived from the work of the honored authors.
Sapkowski, known for his series of books on the witcher Geralt of Rivia, has a prolific career with major awards such as the Ignotus or the Zajdel, while being distinguished for his language and peculiar sense of humor.
His novel The Last Wish (1990), the first in the saga of the well-known character of Geralt, was adapted for cinema in 2001 and also reached the world of video games, while titles such as The Lesser Evil, The Sword of Destiny, are part of his repertoire.
For his part, Lem bequeathed a work characterized by its satirical and philosophical tone, which he printed in books such as Ciberíada and Solaris, which have been translated into 40 languages and have sold 27 million copies. (Source: Prensa Latina)
