اینکه یکی از معروفترین و بهترین کوت های کل مجموعه و آقای داگلاس آدامز که همون اول کتابه حذف شده بود شدیدا زد تو ذوقمThe story so far:In the beginning the Universe was created.This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.------------------------------------------------ببینید این مجموعه قدرت تمرکز بالایی میطلبه. به درد کسایی که دنبال داستان یا شخصیت پردازی هستن هم نمیخورهولی اگه دوست دارید یه نفر تخیلات دیوانه وارش رو به شکل طعنه آمیز به رُختون بکشه، بِسمِ الگُّر...

تو نابغه ای(بودی) آقای داگلاس آدامز . فقط یک نابغه یا شاید هم یک دیوونه‌ ی تمام عیار میتونه اینهمه عناصر بی‌ربط و پراکنده رو با ملاط طنز جوری کنار هم بچینه که نتیجه‌اش شاهکار از آب دربیاد. حشره‌هایی که بارتندر ان،آسانسور اگزیستانسیال، ربات افسرده، حیوونایی که میخوان متقاعدت کنن گوشت دنده لذیذی دارن برای اینکه بخوریشون و نئاندرتالها ...تو خیلی خل بودی، و من عاشق آدمای خل و چلم، باهوش و بی حد و مرز خلاق، آتئیست هم که بودی،و یه آدم شوخ طبع و نویسنده فوق العاده، عجب ترکیب سمی‌ای. میتونستم برای ازدوا...

For what it is worth, despite my loathing for the first book in this best-selling immensely popular series I persevered and took a look at The Restaurant at the End of the Universe. The same results ensued for me a Hitchhiker's, outdated, trite and weak humour, infantile comedy and almost lazy plotting. The only save at the moment for me is Marvin! One Star Read, I am afraid as I liked this even less than I liked Hitchhiker's! 3 out of 12

Poor Marvin!
I’m glad our heroes are exploring space and time but poor Marvin!!!!

The second strike of the prime, not so directive, example of how Sci-Fi, fantasy, humor, philosophy, and criticism can be fused to create an intergalactic road trip. Reread 2022 with extended review So much in such a short workIncluding time manipulation, end of time, relativity of death and afterlife, monetarization of the end of the universe, human evolution and what may have influenced it, madness resulting from the insight of humankinds´ unimportance concerning the cosmic scale, etc., Adams ...

Yo Marvin! Zaphod, Marvin, Trillian, Arthur and Ford resume their improbable adventures through the infinity of time and the immensity of a boundlessly crazy galaxy. Trying to understand the significance of the Ultimate Question, and finding the Ruler of the Galaxy.An interesting sequel, with many elements and the style that characterize Hitchikers #1, possibly the funniest book I’ve ever read. Many funny moments and absurd genialities of a tragically comic universe like only Douglas can deliv...

I was talking to a friend of mine the other day, when he asked me for a book recommendation. “Nothing too long,” he said. “Or too factual.” My brain starting racing. Tolstoy? Much too long. Bill Bryson? Much too factual. “The news?” I suggested. “No, no,” he said. “A book.” My mind kept racing through titles. “Ah, I’ve got it!” I said finally. “Try The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy series. They are wholly remarkable books.” This brief conversation encapsulates why I enjoy these books ...

There is theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.There is another theory which states that this has already happened. Arthur Dent and his companions went through some bizarre and inexplicable adventures after the Earth got blown to bits by Vogons in the opening sequence of the series. They were probably too close to making sense of their situ...

Captain Jeltz our old not so good friend ( a callous butcher) from the previous book, is after the stolen spaceship with the unlikely name,"Heart of Gold" again! On board are Arthur Dent, Ford Prefect, Trillian and the ex -President of the Galaxy the thief, Zaphod Beeblebrox ( nobody cares about Marvin the annoying robot). The unsmiling captain likes killing, that's what he does best. The fugitive ship is just about to be no more, with the help of the cruel Vogan ( a bad poet too), and his deadl...

The universe is a joke. Even before I was shown the meaning of life in a dream at 17 (then promptly forgot it because I thought I smelled pancakes), I knew this to be true--and yet, I have always felt a need to search for the truth, that nebulous, ill-treated creature. Adams has always been, to me, to be a welcome companion in that journey. Between the search for meaning and the recognition that it's all a joke in poor taste lies Douglas Adams, and, luckily for us, he doesn't seem to mind if you...
