I can't figure out why Dandelion Wine by Bradbury isn't considered one of the great works of American literature.

Lem (it's a shame I don't see his name in this thread too often...), Philip K Dick, Gibson and...arghhh, always forgotting his name...the one who wrote "Speaker of the deceased" (just translating the polish tittle, don't remember the english one... )...anyone here knows who it is?

edit: Sethos, thanks to you I remember this again! Wonder for how long...oh well, going to library soon maybe...

Orson Scott Card wrote "Speaker for the Dead".

It's part of the "Ender's Game" series, which we've already discussed.

Hey, I mentioned Lem.

Exactly, only you Gurm...

I read GOLEM by Lem, nothing else yet though.

[Gurm]

thop,

You should hunt up some more Lem, it's good stuff... although I tend to always feel cheated by bad translations (I can only imagine what people reading non-English versions of LOTR think!) into English.

yeah, about LOTR, we have here even two versions: with names, places etc. left intact and the other with polish ones (apart for other differences of course)

oh well, good I don't have this problems with Lem
