Robert Heinlein's later novels are also written in the political
diatribe/preachy grouch genre. You may wish to consider them, as well. ;)
Seriously, start with the first one and do what the best-seller-reading
ladies I meet at the used bookstores tell me they do: skip paragraphs. I
love his earlier stuff which, presumably, had the benefit of an editor. Try
A Bullet for Cinderella, for instance.
