Stanisław Lem’s books have been translated into many languages and published in tens of millions of copies. The FAQ on Lem’s official Polish website gives 41 languages and more than 30 million copies; the current official homepage now gives 52 languages and more than 40 million. These figures reflect estimates published on different pages of the site, not one simultaneous count. [1–2]
