Yes, it's the same author. Solaris is also a great novel, but despite having some romance in it, is even more inscrutable than Fiasco. They both deal with alien encounters that we humans anthropomorphize with tragic results. On a fine scale, the stories are hard to follow because one side doesn't follow our usual scripts. However, on a larger scale, they are just the usual man overreaches and falls story.
