"Roadside Picnic" ("Пикник на обочине") is a science fiction novel by Arkady Strugatsky (1925-1991) and Boris Strugatsky (1933-2012), written in 1971, published in "Aurora" magazine in 1972. Was re-published for the first time in a book in an unmolested form in 1984. The only anti-Soviet content, delaying book publication was its quality.

IO9 ("We come from the future") has a good summary in English.
