Douglas Adams changed the face of science fiction with his cosmically comic novel
and its classic sequels. Sadly for his countless admirers, he hitched his own ride to the great beyond much too soon. Culled posthumously from Adams's fleet of beloved Macintosh computers, this selection of essays, articles, anecdotes, and stories offers a fascinating and intimate portrait of the multifaceted artist and absurdist wordsmith.
Join Adams on an excursion to climb Kilimanjaro...dressed in a rhino costume; peek into the private life of Genghis Khan - warrior and world-class neurotic; root for the harried author's efforts to get a
movie off the ground in Hollywood; thrill to the further exploits of private eye Dirk Gently and two-headed alien Zaphod Beeblebrox. Though Douglas Adams is gone, he's left us something very special to remember him by. Without a doubt.
This book is part of the "Dirk Gently" series. Here are some other books from this series:
