to sail beyond the sunset wikipedia plot summary The book is a memoir of Maureen Johnson Smith Long, mother, lover, and eventual wife of Lazarus Long. Maureen is ostensibly recording the events of the book while held in prison alongside Pixel, the cat from The Cat Who Walks Through Walls. Maureen, born on July 4, 1882, recounts her girlhood in backcountry Missouri, discovery that her family is a member of the long-lived Howard Families (whose backstory is revealed in Methuselah's Children), marriage to Brian Smith, another member of that group, and her life—largely in Kansas City—until her apparent death in 1982. In addition, Maureen lives through, and gives her (sometimes contradictory) viewpoints on many events in other Heinlein stories, most notably the 1917 visit from the future by "Ted Bronson" (Lazarus Long), told from Long's point of view in Time Enough for Love, D. D. Harriman's space program from The Man Who Sold the Moon, and the rolling roads from The Roads Must Roll. Maureen's adventures include a series of sexual encounters, beginning in childhood wherein, having just had her first sexual intercourse, she is examined by her father, a doctor, and finds herself desiring him sexually. Her story then encompasses various boys, her husband, ministers, other women's husbands, boyfriends, swinging sessions, and the adult Lazarus Long/Theodore Bronson. Additionally, she continues a lifelong pursuit of her father sexually, encourages her husband to have sexual intercourse with their daughters, and accompanies him when he does; but forbids a son and daughter of hers from continuing an incestuous relationship, primarily for the sister's reluctance to share the brother with other women.[1] All of these are set against a history lesson of an alternate 20th century in which a variety of social and philosophical commentary is delivered. She is eventually rescued from prison by Lazarus Long and other characters of various novels in the ship Gay Deceiver (from The Number of the Beast), and after rescuing her father from certain death in the Battle of Britain, is united with her descendants in a massive group marriage in the settlement of Boondock, on the planet Tertius. Maureen ends her memoir and the Lazarus Long saga with the phrase "And we all lived happily ever after".

in the book "i will fear no evil", a rich old man has his brain/consciousness transplanted into the body of his secretary, a super hot young black woman. however her consciousness is also still in there somehow, although not in the drivers seat, and a lot of the book is conversation between them. the rich old man is horny and sluts it up, discovering that sex is so much better for women. he also ends up having sex a guy who was best friends with the rich old guy, but doesnt know about the consciousness transfer. then he learns about it and is like thats great. then for some reason that guy has a terrible accident and HIS consciousness is transplanted into the hot young black woman, so now it's three people living inside the mind. then they go to the moon or something at the end.

in the book "farnhams freehold" a group of people (family of four - husband wife son daughter, a lady visitor, and a black (relevant) house servant) are at a dinner party when nuclear war kicks off, and they all go into the bunker. a direct hit seemingly catapults them into an alternate dimension, as when they ultimately emerge from the bunker they are in the exact same spot but it's uninhabited wilderness. they conclude they are in a different reality where mankind never existed. what follows is a mostly entertaining survival story. however there is extremely weird incest stuff like the daughter tells the dad that she would be willing to have sex with him (but not the brother who is an antagonist) to propagate the human race. and then the turn comes. it turns out they were actually catapulted into the future, rather than an alternate dimension. in this future world, the nuclear war killed most white people and asians but left black people untouched. black people have established an extremely high tech advanced civilization. however. they also practice white slavery, including the creation of eunuchs. they also use white women as bed warmers. last, but perhaps most importantly, they are cannibals and eat their slaves, and i think there are also some white people who are specifically raised to become meat. the funniest part of the book is that heinlein goes out of his way to criticize racism and say that it's bad/stupid, but then this is his idea of what it would be like if black people were in charge. great stuff.

I forget the name, but there was one book where the twins didn't do twincest, but it was because the whole gimmick of the book was that one stayed on earth and the other went to another star system. Now that I think of it, they were psychically linked, so there may have been twincest by proxy. I don't remember and I choose not to look it up.

Scifi authors write about how they sexual perverts. Fantasy authors write about how they are racist.

that 70s scifi book "space relations" that donald barr wrote was a meme for a while based on epstein poo poo but the worst thing about the book is how much it blends in with the other pervert scifi of the 70s, theres nothing remarkable about it in that respect
