Author: Arkadi Strugatski, Boris Strugatski
"The Strugatsky Brothers show themselves to be realists in the fantastic tradition by drawing logical deductions from assumed premises."
-Stanis?aw Lem-
"The Strugatsky Brothers influenced me as much as Orwell, Huxley and Dick."
-Jonathan Lethem-
"If a person can get what he wants and wants what he can get, then he is happy."
Arkadi and Boris Strugatski are the only duo who deserve the title of "the greatest science fiction writers of the Soviet period" with their intellectually provocative, incredibly entertaining, brave and critical books. Monday Begins Saturday is a unique work, even within the Strugatsky Brothers' oeuvre, with its magnificent blend of magic and science.
It all starts when computer engineer Sasha Privalov picks up two hitchhikers. These two hitchhikers work at YOKHİÇ Institute, where the impossible becomes ordinary, where eternity is just a Monday, and where mythological characters roam the corridors. Privalov is inevitably drawn into this strange world where magical research is serious business.
The magic academy that the Strugatskys built on science is an inspiration that predates JK Rowling's Hogwarts and Patrick Rothfuss's University. This book, which shows that the Strugatskys could be Kafka if they wanted, but they happily followed their own path, is one of the most unique satires ever written.
In a world where science, magic and socialism come together, how far away can chaos be? Monday Starts Saturday, magic multiplication table.
