I wonder why I can not see your answer to my inquiry on the TH-cam link, but just in my yt studio. I would like to solve this. Do you have any idea? upgraded you to an Standart Moderator in this yt comments section.
Thank you for uploading this! I struggled to get started with the book but when I started to listen to this audio book I got hooked. It's a timeless masterpiece!
thanks for the remark. I cannot control influx of ads. For using android I recommend NewPipe, or for Desktop Brave Browser, for they both filter our any ads in yet vids ;)
cannot, or, I don't see any way how. It is a Standart publication and Google af course squeezes what it can. But I would be delighted to get to know the way to do it. besides use appropriate tools, like Brave browser or New pipe.
What a great story. I was considering watching the 2002 adaptation with George Clooney but the trailer looks nothing like the book. I adore the way the narrator performed the part of Snout, but Snout doesn't even appear in the film and that's a crying shame.
Rarely a movie can catch up or even exceed a book imho. Your mind is the ultimate story teller and given to much information into to many channels, it just gets boring.
@XxAmayaSanxX The 2002 doesn't really follow the plot at all. They turned it into a love story. It's a decent film, but it's a bad adaptation imo. I haven't seen the 70s version yet but I will check it out Thanks 👍
Why is it impossible to find this exact translation in text form? I was planning to read the text while listening to the audio but the translation is completely different, there's only audio for one translation and only text for the other. 😮💨😮💨

Best narration of best translation of one of the greatest novel ever. Thanks for share it
happy to read that. Did you listen to other audiobooks from Solaris?

Solaris. Great story. Paul Martin 2024
Thanks for uploading this 😊.
I would first start with BBC Play and then listen to this.
This book must hold the record for ads. I'm glad it's not War and Peace, otherwise it could take five years to get through.
thanks for the remark. I cannot control influx of ads.

Delete your youtube app and open youtube in your phones web browser. Zero ads.
Bro got them long ads every 5min…
I saw no ads. Perhaps because I've go youtube premium.
@@Only_Davids_Twin that’s right
thanks for sharing this I plan on tripping out to the movie once my shrooms are done growing 🍄☮
which version of the movie?
I would recommend the old russian version, but on shrooms anything can happen :)
Super! I read a book in Russian and watched Tarkovsky's film. I also really liked the audiobook in English.
Thank you
Think I'll be listening to the entire audiobook, thanks. Would of been nice if you excluded commercials.

Snout just may be my favorite fictional character of all time
What a great story. I was considering watching the 2002 adaptation with George Clooney but the trailer looks nothing like the book. I adore the way the narrator performed the part of Snout, but Snout doesn't even appear in the film and that's a crying shame.

Snout appears. And disappears…
The 2002 verson is a relatively decent adaptation. The 1972 film also comes highly reccomended.
@XxAmayaSanxX The 2002 doesn't really follow the plot at all. They turned it into a love story. It's a decent film, but it's a bad adaptation imo. I haven't seen the 70s version yet but I will check it out Thanks 👍

@educostanzo Wikipedia author's page say there's only an Amazon Kindle 2014 version of this translation, but not printed
Im polish and i only managed to find an audiobook of a polish book in english😂
There are no printed versions of this translation, which is a direct one, as a note. So, you got one that the Lem family approved.

sounds like a young George Guidall
should do the book Rise of the Wolf by Jennifer Nielsen
interesting. can u give a brief review what motivates you to mention this book?
Ads... i remember, faintly, like a scent of a memory...
Adverts suck large.
Books are boring when forced to read
Forced? Impossible. Anti intellect only to you and yours, long may you fail!
