The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress

Widely acknowledged as one of Robert A. Heinlein’s greatest works, The Moon Is a Harsh Mistress rose from the golden age of science fiction to become an undisputed classic, and a touchstone for the philosophy of personal responsibility and political freedom. A revolution on a lunar penal colony, aided by a self-aware supercomputer, provides the framework for a story of a diverse group of men and women grappling with the ever-changing definitions of humanity, technology, and free will, themes that resonate just as strongly today as they did when the novel was first published.
