"Stranger in a Strange Land" was published in 1961, blasting established religion and conventional sexual morality. It wasn't a YA book but it certainly refutes the idea of the cultural censorship you assert.
- realistschuckle 12y agoIt did start out as a YA book. Only, halfway through, RAH realized that he wanted to publish to a more mature audience. The first third of SiaSL hearkens back to his YA beginnings; the rest of it appeals to the rebellious. That book cemented my enjoyment of the rest of his writings because I bridged from child to adolescent at the time of reading.
