Über diesen Titel

 Epic, entertaining, blasphemous, this is the most influential and controversial of Science Fiction novels. Stranger in a Strange Land caused uproar when it was first published as it savaged conventional religious, sexual and social ideals.

Many years in the future, Valentine Michael Smith's upbringing is exceptional. Orphan child to two astronauts killed in space, he is raised on Mars.

Twenty-five years later he is "rescued" and brought back to Earth.

The initial enthusiasm of the administration in Smith's safe return is soon dampened by the realisation that they cannot control him. Possessed with superhuman skills and a unique philosophy he threatens their society - Smith must be contained.

Then a nurse helps him escape his hospital jail.

Their flight becomes a journey of discovery, enlightenment and wonder. But danger is following fast behind, and there will be no escape from the final confrontation.

Heinleins Stil ist super.
Das Ende, obgleich logisch, hat mich dennoch ein bisschen unzufrieden hinterlassen.
Aber das ist ja durchaus legitim.
Tolle Geschichte, mit einem guten Schuss Anarchie und Blasphemie (gegenüber ALLEN Religionen).

Macht nachdenklich

I have felt a relief when decided to stop listening to it. This book appears to me as artificial, uninspired and simply boring.

I've got bored and could not finish it.

This book made me think and was inspiring. Of course, it was written in a time and society that we, today, may disagree with in many points. But I had the feeling that the author tries to convey a message of truth and liberation which is valid today as well.

Maybe this is due to the mainstream at the time this was written... but the perception of women in this work is just horrible!
The non-existing storyline and childlike attempts at philosophy and religion do not help, but nothing gets past all those moments when women are portrayed as either silly servants to man or simply as adorable objects.
This is not literature, this is trash. I might have said 'just trash', but there were scenes, where I had to laugh out loud, that has to count for something.

Regarding the narrator: He has a hard time at keeping characters distinguishable in longer dialogues. But in comparison to the author he really shines!

a boy's fantasy?
