Excerpt: Roadside Picnic (Russian: ¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿, Piknik na obochine, IPA: ) is a short science fiction novel written by Arkady and Boris Strugatsky between January 18 and November 3 of 1971. As of 1998, 38 editions of the novel were published in 20 countries. The novel was first translated to English by Antonina W. Bouis. The preface to the first American edition of the novel (MacMillan Publishing Co., Inc, New York, 1977) was written by Theodore Sturgeon. The film Stalker directed by Andrei Tarkovsky is loosely based on the novel, with a screenplay written by the Strugatskys. The story was written by Strugatsky brothers in 1971 (the first outlines written January 18 27, 1971 in Leningrad, with the final version completed between October 28 and November 3, 1971 in Komarovo.) In 1977, the novel was first published in the United States in English. Roadside Picnic was refused publication in the Soviet Union for eight years due to government censorship and numerous delays. The heavily censored different versions published between 1980 and 2000 have little in common with the original version written by the authors. Soviet censors rewrote major plot points, changed names of characters and dialog to better reflect the Marxist ideology (removed language deemed as 'rude'; heavier emphasis was placed on the exploitation of the Zones for 'materialistic' purposes by an elite bourgeois cabal as a means to oppress the proletariat masses, etc.) The only Russian language version endorsed by the Strugatsky brothers as the original, was published in the 2000 2003 collection titled The Black Works of the Strugatsky Brothers. The name of the novel derives from a metaphor proposed by Dr. Valentine Pillman, who believes there is no rational explanation either for the alien Visitation or the mysterious properties of the Zones or the purpose of the artifacts found there. In the novel, he compares the Visitation to 'A picnic. Picture a forest, a country road, a meadow. Cars drive off the countr 24 pp. Englisch.

Fine Binding. Condition: New. McKean, Dave (illustrator). First Edition Thus, First Impression. A new copy in Folio Society wrapping, as received directly from the publisher. Carefully checked for flaws, of which there are none. First Folio edition, first impression. Featuring the phenomenal work of award-winning illustrator Dave McKean, this Folio Society edition of 'Roadside Picnic' is a design-led celebration of the Strugatsky Brothers' sci-fi masterpiece, which also includes a fascinating new introduction by the artist. Years after the aliens have been and gone, six landing sites, or Zones, around the world still hold the mysterious remnants of the visitation. These include dangerous but valuable artefacts and, despite the unimaginable terror of these toxic wastelands, stalker Redrick Schuhart feels compelled to keep coming back, his life dominated by the illegal trade in alien products. An unsettling and unforgettable world, the Strugatsky Brothers' mind-bending novel is a hugely influential twist on a 'first-contact' story and was the inspiration for the Andrei Tarkovsky film 'Stalker'. Every aspect of this remarkable edition radiates the shimmering, strangely compelling qualities of the Zones. Seven colour illustrations by award-winning illustrator Dave McKean visualise the Strugatsky Brothers' masterful storytelling with startling effect, while the binding is blocked in silver and gold foils. Two-colour printing and McKean's intricately drawn endpapers make this the ultimate collector's edition for science-fiction aficionados. Bound in blocked and printed textured paper. Set in PT Serif Pro with Filth of Icarus as display. Printed on Abbey Pure Rough paper. 240 pages printed in dark green ink with integrated illustrations. 7 double-page spread colour illustrations, including a double-sided fold-out. Printed endpapers. Digitally printed page edges. 10'' x 6¼''. Blocked and printed slipcase. Printed and bound in Italy. Additional photos available on request or these may be viewed on my eBay listing. Heavy/oversize. U.K. postage at default rate but overseas buyers may be asked for a little extra. Enquiries welcome. All orders professionally packed, tracked and/or signed for, and fully insured.

Seller: Burley Fisher Books, London, United Kingdom
Book First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Extremely scarce edition of Strugatsky novels 'Tale of the Troika' and 'Roadside Picnic'. Owing to their association with the immortal director Andrei Tarkovsky, the Strugatsky brothers are nonetheless at the very pinnacle of Soviet Science Fiction. Their names stand alongside Zamyatin and Yefremov in the great pantheon of the Soviet literature. Page ends are yellowed, and corners of the cover are scuffled. Nonetheless this remains a fantastic piece of history, when the brothers began to find a popular audience outside of the Soviet Union. Roadside Picnic would famously serve as the blueprint for the seminal film Stalker , which in time would spawn an aesthetic category, historical verisimilitudes; the book has been linked with the Chernobyl Nuclear Disaster and even the fall of the Soviet Union itself. A piece of history.
