道格拉斯·亞當斯(1952—2001),英國作傢,畢業於劍橋大學。主要作品就是銀河係漫遊五部麯。包括《銀河係漫遊指南》、《宇宙盡頭餐館》、《生命、宇宙及一切》、《再見,謝謝魚》和《基本無害》。這個係列被西方科幻讀者奉為“科幻聖經”之一。由於銀河係漫遊係列小說的突齣成就,國際小行星管理委員會甚至還將一顆小行星命名為阿瑟·鄧特——該係列的主人公。
2001年,亞當斯因心髒病猝發離世——此前正在與好萊塢製片商閤作,共同將《銀河係漫遊指南》搬上銀幕。2005年4月29日,由迪斯尼公司拍攝的《銀河係漫遊指南》正式公映。首映周便獲得二韆一百七十多萬美元,成為當周北美票房冠軍。
How shall we begin?
This is the story of a book called The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy —not an Earth book, never published on Earth and, until the terrible catastrophe occurred, never seen or even heard of by any Earthman. Nevertheless, a wholly remarkable book.
or
This is the story of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy , a number-one best seller in England, a weekly radio series with millions of fanatic listeners, and soon to be a television spectacle on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.
or
This is the story of Arthur Dent, who, secnds before Earth is demolished to make way for a galactic freeway, is plucked off the planet by his friend, Ford Prefect, who has been posing as an out-of-work actor for the last fifteen years but is really a researcher for the revised edition of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Together they begin a journey through the galaxy aided by quotes from The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, with the words don’t panic written on the front. (“A towel is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have.”)
In their travels they meet:
•Zaphod Beeblebrox—the two-headed, three-armed ex-hippie and totally out-to-lunch President of the Galaxy
•Trillian—Zaphod’s girl friend, formerly Tricia McMillan, whom Arthur once tried to pick up at a cocktail party
•Marvin—a paranoid android, a brilliant but chronically depressed robot
•Veet Voojagig—former graduate student obsessed with the disappearance of all the ballpoint pens he bought over the years
To find the answers to these burning questions: Why are we born? Why do we die? And why do we spend so much time in between wearing digital watches? read The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy . But remember . . . don’t panic, and don’t forget to bring a towel.

評分时至如今,科幻小说在许多人眼中仍是荒诞的代表,科幻小说中描写的太空帝国(如阿西莫夫《基地》》、机器人(如阿西莫夫《我,机器人》)或对外太空的探索(如罗宾逊《红火星》),显得是那么遥不可及、不可思议。事实上科幻小说并不荒诞,尽管它仍未有一个完全明确的定义,但...

評分道格拉斯·亚当斯。多么俗的名字。 读完这本小说,你绝对会爱上他。而且你不要担心读这本书会很费时,因为你会忘了时间。 被称为“科幻圣经”,绝不可能是浪得虚名! “让一个沃贡人把酒吐出来的最好办法就是用你的手指戳进他的喉咙,而激怒他的最好办法则是把他的祖母拿去喂贪...
