Today I decided to recommend something from science fiction so that on the weekend you can take a break from work and read an interesting book.

And the choice fell on "Perfect imperfection." by Jacek Dukai. The oxymoron in the title is already intriguing, and tracking the intricacies of the plot resembles an attempt to imagine the tesseract and its rotation in 3-dimensional space:) It all starts with Jacek introducing the protagonist Aadam Zamoyski using a plot technique that another Pole, Roger Zhelyazny, liked to use. (Roger had American citizenship.). In "Perfect Imperfection," Adam Zamoysky is as out of context as Corwin in the Amber Chronicles. And he's also coming back from oblivion, like Sam in the Lord of Light. However, if Roger Zhelyazny wrote in the style of fantasy, then Jacek Dukay uses his knowledge of physics, metaphysics and trends in the development of computer science to create a world that is interesting to explore. The first page shows the progress curve of Homo Sapiens with interesting terms: stachs, foebe, limit computer, inclusion, marginal inclusion. All these terms are revealed in the book gradually simultaneously before Adam and the reader, who are approximately on the same point of the progress curve:) Interestingly, to separate the semantics of all the above terms, the author needed to invent new genera in the language. To summarize my perception of this book, I can say that it is simply excellent:) The described world is very interesting, and the knowledge of modern physics. (at least on the scientific level)Computer science and other related things make reading even more fun. And the reason is that it is possible to fully perceive the depth of the author’s fantasies, as well as their connection with current reality.
