N2  - "Kevin is a psychologist who arrives at a space station orbiting the mysterious planet of Solaris: his mission is to ascertain whether research should be terminated due to lack of progress. He finds the station all but deserted, its straggling crew seemingly haunted by hallucinations of figures from their individual pasts. But then Kevin himself is visited in the middle of the night by a woman who is outwardly identical to his dead wife. Will Kevin be able to resist the disturbing ambience of Solaris, and the emotional pull towards the living, breathing likeness of the woman he loved?"--Page 4 of cover
