Very silly, very British. The Earth has been condemned to make way for an interstellar bypass, and Arthur Dent is the only survivor. His friend Ford Prefect turns out to be an extraterrestrial, who hitches a ride for the two of them just in time.
Arthur learns the importance of towels and the futility of procuring a decent cup of tea anywhere but home.

Clever, brilliant and funny! Loved this book for the stretching of the imagination, and the profound wisdom I found in each page. My favorite part is where there is a discussion about the dolphins on Earth and how we humans always considered ourselves the smartest and most dominate of species - one of those quotable lines you remember....plan to read all the other sequels to this series. Thumbs way up!
