The book with the title "Stranger in a Strange Land" is not new in the list of the most widely read science fiction and fantasy materials. It is written by Robert A. Heinlein and its main character is Valentine Michael Smith. Valentine Michael Smith had been away from earth for several years. He grew up in Mars and returned back in his early adult life.
