Fremder in einer fremden Welt

Heinlein's depiction of an alien society raises questions about what it truly means to be human. I wonder what inspired this perspective shift.

The deep dives into morality and society made me think but also slowed the pace at times. How did others feel about these sections?

The non-linear storytelling added layers to the story, but I’m curious whether this was planned from the start or developed during writing.
