I liked most of the Heinlein Juveiniles, and this was the last to add to my library. I think I may have liked this the best. It certainly seemed one of the most believalbe of them all.

Rod starts as a dual enrolled High School student in a survival class, like a hard core version of one of my ORLM courses from NMU. Many in class will quit before the final exam, two weeks on a far off planet with no information on where they are going.

The "Tunnel in the Sky" that the title references is apparently whatever teh Heinelin Jiveinles universe equivelant of the Stargate. I don't think I realized how many such variants on that duty exist, particularly as this is at lest 40 years before stargate was authored.
Rodturns up on his planet with nothing but a fear of the unkonw Stober he is warned of. He just needs to survive fore 2 weeks, and with 26 hour days he's arleady further along.

But after he's taken out by a wild animal he mises reyndavous. Or maybether iw as a super nova that blew up the whole stargate system. Regardless he finds others for survival and after months they realize no one is coming and they just need to make this their own little planet. You keep expecting something and sure enough it happens, but I won't spoil it. ( )

I libri per ragazzi di Heinlein non sono eccessivamente complicati, ma di certo hanno una visione dell'"animale uomo" in età adolescenziale molto, non so... ragionieristica? Leggo di 16-20enni dispersi su un pianeta ostile che parlano di costituzione (di cui ricordano a memoria interi spezzoni!), penso a me e a i miei compagni di scuola e mi viene da ridere, lo ammetto.

Certo, paragonato al Il Signore delle mosche si tratta di una visione molto più ottimista, Heinlein immagina una società dove certe competenze vengono date a livello scolastico e i pargoli allevati con un bagaglio di senso civico e coscienza governativa che ad averceli, saremmo noi la maggiore la potenza mondiale. Diciamo che ad oggi, sentire un diciassettenne che fa astute mosse politiche e pensa solo al matrimonio uccide un po' il mio senso di verosimiglianza.

Come per tutti gli altri suoi libri, anche questo va letto con le lenti del suo tempo, e alcune cose assumono un significato ben diverso: il ruolo femminile si sente, anche se con molte limitazioni: una delle protagoniste femminili è descritta come estremamente competente, ma nel momento di maggior pericolo viene comunque "messa al sicuro con le altre donne". Per nessuna di loro si mette in dubbio il matrimonio, anche la sorella del protagonista, con una solida carriera nell'esercito, sostiene di avere come obbiettivo nella vita "una fattoria e sei figli".

Allo stesso tempo Rod, il protagonista, viene prontamente sbugiardato non appena inizia a cianciare di superiorità maschile, con il suo stesso migliore amico che lo prende, pur bonariamente per scemo, e appunto, una sorella maggiore che lavora nell'esercito e ne sa molto più di lui.

Diciamo che forse, per il periodo, Heinlein era uno dei più progressisti, con il bonus extra che moltissimo dei suoi personaggi (inteso come come "protagonisti") non sono mai "caucasici", ma anzi, di etnie molto differenti e la cosa è gestita come assolutamente normale. Solo non sono sicura di quanto dei romanzi così lenti e densi di tecnicismi potrebbero essere apprezzati da un ragazzi del 2020. ( )

Surprisingly like The Martian - people stranded on another planet that need to figure out a lot of stuff to survive. The Martian was all about managing resources and technical details. Tunnel in the Sky had some of that, but more about social structures. ( )

All I know is, I'm glad none of my final exams were ever like this. ( )
