Let's Discuss! - Stranger in a Strange Land


Rave reviews and nothing but good things from my friends about Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein. Super excited to announce August's book club pick! (Thanks, Marina, for the awesome pick!)

The novel tells the story of Valentine Michael Smith, a human raised by Martians on the planet Mars, upon his return to Earth in early adulthood. The novel explores his interaction with — and eventual transformation of — Earth culture.
Lots of fodder for discussion if you ask me. Because there is a longer version (600 or so pages) Marina suggests you look for the shorter edition if you can. I, however, could only find the 600 page version. Should be fun regardless.

We are meeting on Saturday, August 29th @ 11:30am. Location? Marina's home right by Dodger Stadium. Comment or message me somehow for the address.
