Winner of the 1962 Hugo Award presented by the World Science Fiction Society, Heinlein's controversial novel became an icon of 1960s counterculture, through its presentation of a human raised on Mars, who comes to Earth and challenges social norms relating to death, sex, religion and money. The text is taken from the unexpurgated version, released by Heinlein's widow three years after Heinlein's death in 1991. Donato Giancola is an award-winning fantasy and science fiction illustrator and artist.
