The remarkable American visionary writer Robert Sheckley was interested in all spheres of human life and activity, but most of all, as a true humanist, the person himself and his complex inner world: psychology, philosophy, religion, ethics. Sheckley, gushing with ideas, sometimes lacked patience for writing long novels, but the stories that came out from under his sharp, ironic pen became true pearls. The collection “Absolute Weapon” includes stories that make up the golden fund of world fiction.
