Although this reminds me of Lain, that Superman 'S' creeps me out.

Yes, that did look a little odd.

Just as all his books are :)

I'm going to read this book at the next week and it will be very pleasant to me to give you any help I can. But I'm afraid that this book really has nothing to do with Lain. Pelevin is an extravagant writer, his favourite subjects are much more related to Zen and psychology than to the Net things.

Thanks!

I don't suppose I should just learn Russian so I can read it?

I don't know anything about translations to other languages than Russian, so, may be, you have to learn Russian to read this book. But I'm afraid that you have to be russian to understand it right. This one I didn't read yet but it's true to almost all other books of Pelevin.

I've encountered this book before, in a thread on a Yoshitoshi ABe artwork board.

Ah.

I've read this book and i say you that it has nothing to do with Lain! Absolutely!
The designers of the book just stoled this picture and leaved no Abe copyrights!
If any of you guys can read russian, read the topic about this here: http://forum.lain.ru/index.php?act=ST&f=5&t=136

Oh? No Lain? Darn.

goh_dan July 9 2005, 07:24:10 UTC

Yeah, that's pity. Such a good writer and such a bad designers :( IMHO, it's usual in book publishing: you know, all these fantasy books with scareful "heroic" faces on the covers...
