American Read
It's an ordinary Thursday morning for Arthur Dent . . . until his house
gets demolished. The Earth follows shortly after to make way for a new
hyperspace express route, and Arthur's best friend has just announced
that he's an alien.
After that, things get much, much worse.
With just a towel, a small yellow fish, and a book, Arthur has to
navigate through a very hostile universe in the company of a gang of
unreliable aliens. Luckily the fish is quite good at languages. And the
book is The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy . . . which helpfully has
the words DON'T PANIC inscribed in large, friendly letters on its cover.
Douglas Adams's mega-selling pop-culture classic sends logic into orbit,
plays havoc with both time and physics, offers up pithy commentary on
such things as ballpoint pens, potted plants, and digital watches . . .
and, most important, reveals the ultimate answer to life, the universe,
and everything.
Now, if you could only figure out the question. . . .
