Readers can''t stop thinking about Roadside Picnic:
''A story of a horrific yet fascinating place, a story of an ordinary and unlikable man just trying to get by, a philosophical interlude on humanity and its significance or lack thereof, of greed and wonder, and the fever dream of the soul screamIt still speaks to me'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
''Such an intriguing setting for me, such an unusual take on alien interaction'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
''It is a thought-provoking, hard-to-put down masterpiece, most probably the best introduction to Soviet science fictionA must read for any sci-fi fan'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
''A fantastic and creative exploration of what first contact might be like'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
''The tone of the book is akin to that of some noir works, dark, gritty, getting darker and grittier as the tale wears on . . Like many great books, the meaning of the ending is left up to the reader'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
''A beautifully depressive and wonderfully atmospheric science fiction novel about life on Earth after an alien "Visitation" that leaves humans with more questions than answers . . Once I started reading it today, I couldn''t stop. The story captured my heart and held my attention'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
''This is the sort of book that you read and then immediately feel the need to lend it to someone you know so that they can experience and enjoy it themselves . . I was truly astonished-by both the poignancy and the deceptive(?) simplicity of this relatively short novel'' Goodreads reviewer, ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
