Under one cover are two classic novels by the luminaries of American fiction, two of the most famous works in the history of the genre, and both winners of the Hugo Award. Lawrence Smith - aka Lorenzo Smythe, “the incomparable master of pantomime and impersonation” - sits on shallow and ready to grab any engagement. And when the spacemen, desperately but unsuccessfully trying to look like ordinary earthlings, offer him to transform into a certain public figure for a few days, Lorenzo sees no reason to refuse. But then fate throws an unthinkable twist: Lorenzo is forced to fly to Mars - although he hates Martians with all his heart; forced to portray the leader of the Expansionist Party - although the extremists from the Party of Humanity are undoubtedly closer to him; forced to merge with his role to the incredible... The Earth is attacked by a terrible enemy - a civilization of intelligent insects. It is impossible to understand them, to come to an agreement with them - all that remains is to destroy before they destroy you. And only if you have endured this pain, these deprivations, do you gain the right to decide for others. “I have tried to discover... some fundamental basis of human behavior, and I have come to the conclusion that the only basis that does not require unproven assumptions is the question of survival,” is how Heinlein outlined the main theme of Starship Troopers in a letter to another classic, Theodore Sturgeon. Well, Paul Verhoeven, in his acclaimed film adaptation of the classic novel, satirically sharpened Heinlein’s “militaristic utopia”, which, if you look closely, is not very distinguishable from a dystopia. “Double Star” is published in a new edition, “Starship Troopers” (also known as “Starship Infantry” , “Soldiers of Space”, etc.) - in a new translation.
