Douglas Adams

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

by Douglas Adams

Ballantine Books

Brilliantly funny, and something more, not quite sure what. In the meantime see a set of off-the-cuff comments posted on Amazon.com by chance passers-by. Every single one gives it a rating of 10 (one asked, "Why can't I give it a rating of 42??"). I have nothing to add for the moment, though I do wonder why my copy keeps disappearing. It's a great gift for a teenager or a friend who could use some good cheer.
