Maureen Johnson, the somewhat irregular mother of Lazarus Long, wakes up in bed with a man and a cat. The cat is Pixel, well-known to fans of the New York Times bestseller The Cat Who Walks through Walls. The man is a stranger to her, and besides that, he is dead.

So begins Robert A. Heinlein’s To Sail beyond the Sunset. Filled with the master’s most beloved characters, this compelling work broadens and enriches his epic vision of time and space, life and death, love and desire. It is also an autobiographical masterpiece—and a wondrous return to the alternate universes that all Heinlein fans have come to know and love.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Admirably successful…The autobiographical material is consistently superb. The alternate universes are equally well done…The sexuality shows the lusty pleasure in smashing taboos familiar to readers of Stranger in a Strange Land.”

(Chicago Sun-Times)

“A family reunion for Heinlein’s characters…a well-attended gathering.”

(Houston Post)

“A tour de force…In a strange and moving way, To Sail beyond the Sunset may be the finest work in the dean’s lengthy career!”

(Kansas City Star)

“Exuberant and spirited…unquestionably one of the major, defining works of Robert A. Heinlein’s long and successful career.”

(San Jose Mercury News)

“Thought-provoking…Considerable wit and energy!”

(Newsday)

“Absorbing and involving!”

(Kirkus Reviews)

“In To Sail beyond the Sunset, Heinlein continues to assemble most, if not all, the characters he has ever created…Heinlein’s voice and his prose are stronger and fresher than they have been in some time…He remains the master!”

(Locus)

This narrator really brings a charming character to life. The story, like many of Heinlein's, has a lot of sex, some of it taboo, so bear that in mind if you try this one, but the story is excellent and detailed. I really enjoyed it and have listened to it several times over the years.

Bernadette Dunne does a lovely job
