About This Book
"IRRESISTIBLE!" --The Boston Globe
Seconds before the Earth is demolished to make way for a galactic freeway,
Arthur Dent is plucked off the planet by his friend Ford Prefect, a researcher
for the revised edition of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy who, for the
last fifteen years, has been posing as an out-of-work actor.
Together this dynamic pair begin a journey through space aided by quotes from
The Hitchhiker's Guide ("A towel is about the most massively useful thing an
interstellar hitchhiker can have") and a galaxy-full of fellow travelers: Zaphod
Beeblebrox--the two-headed, three-armed ex-hippie and totally out-to-lunch
president of the galaxy; Trillian, Zaphod's girlfriend (formally Tricia
McMillan), whom Arthur tried to pick up at a cocktail party once upon a time
zone; Marvin, a paranoid, brilliant, and chronically depressed robot; Veet
Voojagig, a former graduate student who is obsessed with the disappearance of
all the ballpoint pens he bought over the years.
Where are these pens? Why are we born? Why do we die? Why do we spend so much
time between wearing digital watches? For all the answers stick your thumb to
the stars. And don't forget to bring a towel!
"[A] WHIMSICAL ODYSSEY...Characters frolic through the galaxy with infectious
joy."
