"The cosmic voyages of space traveller Ijon Tichy take him on strange adventures in a vast stellar wilderness - encountering clones, crazed mutinous robots and tiny beings, meeting his future self in a time loop, avoiding interplanetary diplomatic incidents and dealing with an orbiting piece of beef sirloin. Playful, absurd, irreverent and philosophical, The Star Diaries hold a satirical mirror up to humanity to examine freedom, technology and existence itself."--Page 4 of cover.
