Summary/Abstract: This article is devoted to the problems of translating science fiction literature. As a material for analysis, a novel by well- known Polish fantasy writer Jacek Dukaj — Perfect Imperfection, was used. The author’s attention focused primarily on the problem of translating terms and pseudo-terms, as well as neologisms. As the analysis of the material in the Russian translation has shown, the translation decisions generally coincide with the author’s intention of the original.
