Oh, man. I have been struggling badly with this. It is classic Heinlein, which is both good and (sometimes very) bad. There has only been one major instant of Heinlein invoking the suggestion of underage sex, so far, between an old man (the narrator) and a girl of fifteen, I believe (or was it thirteen?). However, Lolita this isn't. I need to put the book aside for a while and come back when I have the courage.

Slow going, as ever, for me. I hope I have gotten through the creepy sex scene, already. Robert really had a tin ear for appreciating how his ideas on "free love" come across in his book.
