The writing workshop

Stanisław Lem received his first typewriter from his father before the war. For the decades to come, wherever he stayed, a long series of keyboard strikes and tapping could be heard from the crack of dawn. This is how all his works were created. Under the letters of Lem’s typewriter many secrets of the author’s writings and his original creative methods are hidden, where scientific journals, scraps of paper with notes, scepticism and refusing to answer the phone played an important role.
