Hells Bells! That’s a lot of misogyny!
In the premier episode of Life Death Sci-fi, we try to grok Robert A Heinlein’s science fiction novel, Stranger in a Strange Land. Colorful arguments arise about this “first contact” satire on religion and politics. We try to answer the questions: Is this story a classic? Does the misogyny of the era disqualify a story from becoming classic?
