Douglas Adams - The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy

Douglas Adams - The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy

One Thursday lunchtime Earth is unexpectedly demolished to make way for a new hyperspace bypass. For Arthur Dent, who has only just had his house demolished that morning, this is already more than he can cope with. Sadly, however, the weekend has only just begun. And the Galaxy is a very, very large and startling place indeed.

Douglas Adams's novelisation of his own hit BBC radio sci-fi comedy series.
