The Hitch Hiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Adams, Douglas

Edité par London Pan Books 1979, 1979

A first edition, first printing of 'The Hitch Hikers Guide to the Galaxy' by Douglas Adams, published by Pan Books in 1979. A very good book without inscriptions, with light tanning to the text block with a small stain to the spine and one to the page edge. This paperback, the first appearance of the story in print, prior to the hardback iteration published by Arthur Barker. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams is now an international multi-media phenomenon, stemming from its roots as a radio comedy. The novel has been translated into more than 30 languages over the years and is a whimsical science fiction masterpiece that follows the bewildering adventures of Arthur Dent, a hapless Earthling, after his planet's destruction to make way for an interstellar highway. Joined by his alien friend Ford Prefect and other quirky characters, they traverse the cosmos encountering absurdity and satire. Adams' witty narrative, filled with philosophical musings and cosmic absurdities, satirises human nature and society, making it a timeless classic. N° de réf. du vendeur 23695
