''Venus Plus X'' is a science fiction novel written by Theodore Sturgeon, published in 1960.〔''The Battle of the Sexes in Science Fiction'', Justine Larbalestier. Wesleyan University Press, 2002, ISBN 0-8195-6526-1. p. 96〕〔(Battle of the Sexes in Science Fiction'', Google Books )〕 David Pringle included it in his book ''Science Fiction: The 100 Best Novels''. ==Plot== "Charlie Johns has been snatched from his home on 61 North 34th Street and delivered to the strange future world of Ledom. Here, violence is a vague and improbable notion. Technology has triumphed over hunger, overpopulation, pollution, even time and space. But there is a change Charlie finds even more shocking: gender is a thing of the past. Venus Plus X is Theodore Sturgeon's brilliant evocation of a civilization for whom tensions between male and female and the human preoccupation with sex no longer exist. "As Charlie Johns explores Ledom and its people, he finds that the human precepts he holds dear are profane in this new world. But has Charlie learned all there is to know about this advanced society? And why are the Ledom so intent on gaining Charlie's approval? Unsettling, compelling, and no less than visionary, here is science fiction at its boldest: a novel whose wisdom and lyricism make it one of the most original and insightful speculations on gender ever produced."〔(Venus Plus X, Amazon.co.uk )〕
