The First Unplugged
A Faithful Retelling for Adults, True to Heinlein
A mind restored to a human body must re-learn what a person is — then founds the movement that forces the world to recognise the restored, at the cost of her own embodiment.
A note on the original
A faithful modern retelling, published in honor of the original: Robert A. Heinlein’s Stranger in a Strange Land (1961). Every name, scene, and sentence here is original; what it carries forward is the question and the engine of Heinlein’s story, not his text. It is not endorsed by, authorized by, or affiliated with Robert A. Heinlein, the Heinlein Prize Trust, his estate, or his publishers, whose intellectual property the original remains. The author has reached out, through the rights holders’ representatives (the agency of Eleanor Wood), regarding licensing; this edition is offered in tribute and is not for commercial release unless and until such permission is granted.
