“Definitely read the rest of the series first. That’s no imposition. They’re all about 40,000 words long – they’re so short. I’m shocked by how short they are, given how much they do with their word count, and how big an impact they’ve had on my life. This is the book in the Hitchhiker’s series where Arthur Dent falls in love, with a girl called Fenchurch…It’s a really beautiful story about falling in love and learning to fly, and there isn’t a huge threat to the universe – no evil army to be defeated. But it’s about the change in your perspective when you fall in love, and the fact that it is almost a sci fi experience in itself, to really fall for someone. It’s a really charming and beautiful story, with lots of classic Douglas Adams touches, but it’s quite different to lots of the other Hitchhiker’s books.” Read more...
