Stranger in a Strange Land

Author: Robert A. Heinlein

Valentine Michael Smith, a human raised by Martians, returns to Earth as a stranger in his own world. Naive yet insightful, he grapples with human customs and societal norms, challenging our perceptions of religion, politics, and sexuality. Through Smith’s journey, Heinlein weaves a provocative tale that made me question my own beliefs. It’s a mind-bending ride that left me pondering long after I turned the last page. A true sci-fi classic that still feels relevant today.

Thou art God.
