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!
Douglas Adams is the author of five books in the Hitchhiker's Trilogy including The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy; The Restaurant at the End of the Universe; Life, the Universe and Everything; So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish; and Mostly Harmless. He lives in London.
在银河系西螺旋臂的末端那片未曾标明的寂静虚空中,悬挂着—颗不被人注意的小小的黄色太阳。 Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun. (什么叫做“未曾标明”?uncharte...
评分不是所有人沉迷于亚当斯的英式幽默——一本正经地说瞎话。 于是,只能让一部分人先笑起来。 亚当斯的逻辑游戏太好玩了。他非常得意地告诉我们:专门为有钱人制造行星的曼格拉斯人根据一张来自泛维度种族的订单建造了“地球”——一台巨大的有机电脑,运行着一个为期1000万年的...

放弃中文版转读英文版的决定是对的。翻译以后幽默全没了,而这书没了幽默也就不存在了。前8章读的,后面的听的audio版本。虽然很好玩,但我发现如果睡前听很催眠。。
评分啊,买了KINDILE以后看书果然神速。
评分边听着Fry叔边看完的,睡前读物。我觉得看英文版和看中文版的笑点catch的不太一样。
评分:无
