The Book - The Moon is a Harsh MistressStudents read The Moon is a Harsh Mistress by Robert A. Heinlein. Even though it has the same author as the freshman book, it shows a complete shift in ideology. A major focus of this module is determining the author’s viewpoint. Heinlein uses fiction as a “springboard into the imagination,” and his commanding use of perspective provides novels perfect for deep analysis.
