" Protagonist, Kris Kelvin, arrives at a scientific research station hovering above the surface of Solaris where research has been ongoing for years on the strange ocean life form. When Kris and his colleagues become more aggressive in trying to force contact with Solaris, the ocean's response is to experiment with the researchers' minds by confronting them with their most painful and repressed thoughts and memories through the materialization of complex human constructs. Kris is confronted with the manifestation of his deceased wife and his guilt over her suicide but whatever seems to be tormenting the other researchers appears to be much worse. "

Rezension(1): "〈a href=http://www.audiofilemagazine.com target=_blank〉〈img src=https://images.contentreserve.com/audiofile_logo.jpg alt=AudioFile Magazine border=0 /〉〈/a〉:Lem's remarkable science fiction tale is an unforgettable venture into the unknown, similar in scope and vision to Arthur C. Clarke's classic 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY. As Kris Kelvin ventures to a space station that is conducting experiments over the planet Solaris, he makes a dramatic discovery. The planet itself seems to be playing mind games with him, forcing him to deal with a re-creation of his deceased wife and their shrouded past together. The production showcases a talented cast from the BBC, featuring Ron Cook and Joanne Froggatt, as well as a beautiful soundtrack filled with sound effects that creates an atmosphere of melancholy. As visionary as the tale it relates, this audiobook is a moving experience that is sure to give listeners goose bumps. L.B. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine"
