is imaginary magnitude a strange book, and suffice it to say that your approach is a work of difficult conception. One of those volumes that no one knows where to place. Not even say whether it is a book of fiction or nonfiction. And yet, within the non-fiction books would be a fiction book because it contains a part of an encyclopaedic knowledge of course not yet available. If anyone has ever read Stanislaw Lem (1921-2006) known as the Pole was an author SUV. However, most of his great books are in science fiction and some have been converted movies. Not long ago the publishers has released Solaris . However said imaginary The magnitude can not be considered strictly a work of science fiction to use but no part of fiction in its pages. In fact, The magnitude imaginary part of a project called XXI Century Library of which are also part of the books perfect vacuum, Golem XIV and provocation. The author's purpose is to provide an encyclopedia of knowledge, sometimes futures and other fields of knowledge still exist. And it seems that this approach, besides original is the most attractive. However, the approach does not just materialize into something consistent. Yes, no doubt, no imagination, but sometimes lacking some spark. There also seems to play a sort of burlesque on encyclopedic knowledge, did something like Cervantes Don Quixote to ridicule the romances of chivalry. It may be the tone, that kind of encyclopedic tone that makes reading sometimes lose interest. But what has The magnitude imaginary? First a prologue that sometimes gives the impression of being a delusional exercise of verbiage that may be dispensable. And then four small parties as an article. Necrobia

speaks of a book of pornographic photos taken with an X-ray camera Contains a mockery of erotica and pornography and, at times, causes a certain smile.
then The ERUNT, the story of a researcher who manages to teach the English language a bacteria. Funny and original. Later
is History biotic literature, where it shows the history of literature written by machines, too tedious for my taste.
Finally, Extelotepia Vestrand , something like a treatise on the future knowledge. Are some examples of it. Curious.
Anyway, it seems that the book is rather an exercise in style, as an idea that could lead to an upper story. A work that advise to all lovers of Lem but advise against those who want to start without the author.
