This version restores the XXXXXX words removed from the 1961 edition, including additional material on sexuality, religion, and social commentary that was deemed too controversial for the original release. It’s considered closer to Heinlein’s original vision, though critics and readers are divided on whether it’s superior, with some finding it more verbose. There have been no widely reported or documented releases of a “new version” beyond the 1991 uncut edition. However, there are a few points to consider: - Special Editions: In 2020, Suntup Editions published a limited edition of Stranger in a Strange Land (the uncut 1991 version) with new illustrations by Thomas Canty, signed by the artist, and presented in lettered, numbered, and artist editions. This is a collector’s item rather than a new textual version.
