Hi all! I just finished "The Three Body Problem" by Liu Cixin and enjoyed it a lot. It's got me curious about sci-fi written elsewhere in the world and what cultural differences may appear in sci-fi written from a non-US perspective.

Does anyone have recommendations for what I should check out next? I only speak English and (sort of) French so I'm reliant on translations to one of those languages. Thanks!

Cyberiad is brilliant and funny.

I popped in to say this exact thing. The English translation I read was great.

I read it in Spanish. Same experience. I still laugh thinking about the classification of probability dragons.
