Story
Wielowątkowa, diaboliczna opowieść o tym, jak szlachetne idee indywidualnej wolności, w umysłach ludzi na wolność niegotowych, kształtowanych w uściskach carskiego samodzierżawia, przeradzają się w idee nihilizmu, bezwładne rewolucyjne ruchy i terroryzm. Gęste od mrocznych emocji, mieszaniny obłudy i szlachetności, nienawiści i współczucia, niewinności i amoralnego cynizmu, są "Biesy" krzywym zwierciadłem.

Story
Panoramiczny obraz państwa polskiego odradzającego się po latach niewoli. Cezary Baryka urodził się i wychował w pięknym, kosmopolitycznym Baku, w Imperium Rosyjskim. Choć oboje rodzice byli Polakami, mówił po rosyjsku znacznie lepiej niż po polsku. Gdy miał 14 lat, jego dostatnie i szczęśliwe życie przerwał wybuch I wojny światowej. Ojciec został powołany do wojska. W Baku wybuchła rewolucja, potem wojna Ormian z Tatarami, potem przyszli bolszewicy. Dom Baryków został kompletnie splądrowany, matka Cezarego umarła.

A collector of strange machines. An enthusiast of skiing and sweets. A world famous fantasy writer who kept many secrets, even from his own family. What did he do with the unsuccessful versions of his books? What did he do to anger Philip K. Dick? How did he survive three occupations of Lviv? In a word: Stanisław Lem's life was out of this world. It's a story full of unexpected twists of fate, funny anecdotes, tragic events, small secrets, and big mysteries. It's the first Polish biography of Stanisław Lem, written by another science fiction writer, Wojciech Orliński.

Publisher's summary
Akcja powieści rozgrywa się w czasach upadku dwudziestej dynastii w starożytnym Egipcie. Państwem zarządza Ramzes XII, uzależniony całkowicie od władzy kapłanów. Tymczasem kraj znajduje się w stanie kryzysu - zmniejsza się zaludnienie i wpływy finansowe, pogłębia się również zadłużenie państwa, pożyczającego ogromne sumy od Fenicjan. Młody następca tronu wyrusza w podróż, podczas której ma poznać kraj i zrozumieć przyczyny jego kłopotów. Kiedy po śmierci ojca zostaje nowym faraonem, Ramzesem XIII, posiada już pomysł na reformy, mogące przywrócić świetność Egiptu. Planuje je przeprowadzić bez udziału posiadającej znaczne wpływy kasty kapłańskiej, aby tym samym umocnić władzę faraonów. Nie docenia jednak wiedzy i siły przeciwników...

Story
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.
