/lit/ things that make you sad:

I found out that my two favorite authors, Philip K. Dick and Stanislaw Lem, hated each other. Lem considered Dick the only American author worth a damn, so he wrote him a fan letter. Dick thought Lem was a communist spy trying to get him, so he reported Lem to the FBI.

lem didn't hate dick, as you wrote yourself. and as much as i like pkd, he was an asshole to a lot of people, e.g thomas disch, or some of his wives.

Dick thought Lem is not just a communist spy, but actually a pseudonym for a group of communist authors writing communist propaganda.
Which is even funnier if you remember that Lem hated communism and USSR as much as any self-respecting polish person
