The Hitchhiker'S Guide To The Galaxy

The 42nd Anniversary Edition of 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy' celebrates over four decades of Douglas Adams's iconic science fiction comedy. The story begins with Arthur Dent trying to prevent his house from being demolished, only to discover that Earth is about to be destroyed to make way for a hyperspace bypass. Arthur is rescued by Ford Prefect, a researcher for the titular Guide and an alien in disguise. They hitch a ride on a spaceship just before Earth's annihilation. The book follows their bizarre adventures across the galaxy, which involve eccentric characters like Zaphod Beeblebrox, the two-headed ex-president of the Galaxy; Trillian, the only other human survivor; and Marvin, the depressed robot. The number 42 is famously presented as the 'Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything', a joke embedded in the narrative that has since become a cultural reference. This edition likely includes additional material, such as forewords or illustrations, to commemorate the classic's lasting impact.
