You know, said Arthur, it's at times like this, when I'm trapped in a Vogon airlock with a man from Betelgeuse, and about to die of asphyxiation in deep space that I really wish I'd listened to what my mother told me when I was young.
Why, what did she tell you

Now it is such a bizarrely improbable coincidence that anything so mindboggingly useful could have evolved purely by chance that some thinkers have chosen to see it as the final and clinching proof of the nonexistence of God.
The argument goes something like this: I refuse to prove that I exist,' says God, for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing.
But, says Man, The Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn't it It could not have evolved by chance, It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't, QED. Oh dear, says God, I hadn't thought of that,' and promptly vanished in a puff of logic,

This is a book written inwhich follows the story of Arthur Dent who is having a bad day because his house is about to be torn down to make way for a highway.
However, he has more things to worry about because the Earth is about to be demolished to make way for the galactic highway.
Arthur Dent and his friend Ford Perfect are scooped up from Earth just a second before it is wiped out, The two of them travel through the galaxy and encounter many different people along the way including a depressed robot,
The first half of the book was really funny, I was reading this with a family member, and we both were laughing out loud every couple of minutes, The second half of the book was less funny because it was more plot driven, This book won't be for everyone, because some of the humor is a bit dry, I haven't seen the movie yet, but I am not sure if the jokes will really translate that well to the big screen.
Overall, it was a quick read and pretty enjoyable, However, as mentioned earlier, the pacing felt a bit off but keep in mind this book was written in the's before thesecond attention spans developed by YouTube.
