I started Robert Heinlein's "Farnham's Freehold" tonight. I've been itching to read this since I read about it in Thomas Disch's "The Dreams Our Stuff Is Made Of." The cover bills it as "Science Fiction's Most Controversial Novel"; I'm pretty sure I've heard the same claim applied to "A Clockwork Orange," "Brave New World" and probably twenty others.
Heinlein's dialogue -- oy. Truthfully, I almost didn't finish "Stranger in a Strange Land." What an annoyingly unsubtle book.
On a totally unrelated note, Blogger's editing tools have ceased to appear above the text-entry window; I've emailed them about it. Is anyone else having this problem?
