Sheckley's books will always be read as long as the person reading lives. After all, if a book is truly witty, that is, both sharp and clever, it will find its reader regardless of the vagaries of fashion and division into genres and directions. Sheckley's novels, novellas and short stories have long been classics — and it does not matter in what language the world reader reads them. Interesting, clever and funny — these are the three mighty whales that hold the island called "Robert Sheckley" in the ocean of literature. And any reader who has discovered this island will return to it again and again, because it is impossible not to return to where a piece of your heart remains.
