    This huge book with all of Douglas Adam's stories was amazing- it was an absolute mind-job! The whole reason I read it was because I saw the movie, "The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy", and there were so many jokes I missed (so says my now husband) that I had to read it to truly appreciate the movie.

    So, I read the book, and all I can say is "WOW"...it is an absolute mind-job; an adventure that could not possibly happen; must be from some mad-man's ramblings; OMG it's the funniest piece of literature and series of stories and random events that I've ever read! I'm still trying to figure out how someone could possibly imagine half of the content of these stories- but I loved every minute of it!

  • i dont understand why this book appealed to techers, to the extent that they even allowed it to be used as the theme of the little t at some point. i can sense that the author is trying to be funny, but i just dont get the jokes.

    maybe i'll finish it someday when i have more patience to offer

  • I know where my towel is, babelfish is at the ready, and I threw out my book of Vogan poetry!!! This book is a must for anyone who like sci-fi and general sillyness!
