📗 Libro en inglés THE HITCHHIKER S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY (DELUXE 25TH ANNIVERSARY EDI TION)

THE HITCHHIKER''S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY is not just a book--it''s a phenomenon. It''s based on a BBC radio series that also spawned four other books, a TV series, a movie, a text-based computer adventure game, and a website. Arthur Dent is having a bad day. First, the town council knocked his house down to build a local bypass. Then a fleet of alien spaceships blew up his planet to make way for an intragalactic bypass. Can things get any worse? Possibly. Having been rescued from the Earth''s destruction by his friend Ford Prefect, Arthur embarks upon a hectic, hysterically funny adventure that includes torturously bad poetry, a depressed robot, the two-headed President of the Galaxy (currently on the lam), and the legendary planet-building planet of Magrathea. Arthur''s only consolation is the wise advice printed on the cover of that classic tome, THE HITCHHIKER''S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY: "Don''t Panic." This deluxe edition has a lengthy introduction detailing the origins and the subsequent wide-ranging popular impact of the book and its spinoffs. The introduction also contains photographs of people, places, and objects relating to the series. Each page of the actual novel is framed by two-color pixilated illustrations.
