I finally got around to reading Stranger in a Strange Land.




It hasn’t  aged well

It doesn't seem to have.

I tried to read it for a book group several years ago and gave up.  Heinlein is one of Richard’s favorite authors.

I read it back in the 70’s and loved it.

I tried reading it again about a year ago and was put off by the way the women were portrayed.

So far so good.  I haven’t broken anything yet and fixed a few things.  They seem to like me and I don’t dislike any them .

I almost know everyone’s names.


The fun thing is how many people come into the office and know me.  I’ve been averaging a reunion every other day or so with visiting attorneys, paralegals, closers, the IT guy…that’s been fun .

Interesting.  Who are some of his other favorite authors?

We have begun watching the new series FOUNDATION.  I loved the books when I read them though I don't recall much since it has been a long time.  I read that the series is reflecting a more modern representation of women, at that Asimov had actually updated his books to do just that.  Good for him.  I expect I read the updated versions.
