Honestly, I don't know how to review this book. I know that I loved it, but it's so different from my usual reading, and so thought provoking, that I'm almost afraid to try to write a review that couldn't possibly do it justice. Stranger is about an infant, born during the very first manned flight to Mars, who is orphaned, raised by the Martians, and eventually brought home to an Earth he does not grok. But the book is about so much more than that, and I frankly cannot do more than feebly recommend you read it for yourself.
