Douglas Noel Adams was an English author, humourist, and screenwriter, best known for The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (HHGTTG). Originally a 1978 BBC radio comedy, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy developed into a "trilogy" of five books that sold more than 15 million copies in his lifetime. It was further developed into a television series, several stage plays, comics, a video game, and a 2005 feature film. Adams's contribution to UK radio is commemorated in The Radio Academy's Hall of Fame.
Adams also wrote Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency (1987) and The Long Dark Tea-Time of the Soul (1988), and co-wrote The Meaning of Liff (1983), The Deeper Meaning of Liff (1990) and Last Chance to See (1990). He wrote two stories for the television series Doctor Who, co-wrote City of Death (1979), and served as script editor for its seventeenth season. He co-wrote the sketch "Patient Abuse" for the final episode of Monty Python's Flying Circus. A posthumous collection of his selected works, including the first publication of his final (unfinished) novel, was published as The Salmon of Doubt in 2002.
Adams was a self-proclaimed "radical atheist", an advocate for environmentalism and conservation, and a lover of fast cars, technological innovation, and the Apple Macintosh.

"Жизнь, Вселенная и все остальное" совсем не запомнилась. Кажется, что каламбуры и оксюмороны стали в ней самоцелью. А сюжета не нашел вообще.

"Всего хорошего, и спасибо за рыбу" была понятнее и читалась легко. Но романтическая линия, конечно, приторная, а бесконечное пробивание четвертой стены в конце концов стало утомлять.

В целом в серии получилась какая-то беготня по жанрам: в "Автостопом по галактике" и "Ресторане..." был такой абсурд-сай-фай, в "Жизни..." - фэн(тези)-сай, так как Адамс зачем-то ввел драконов и научил главного героя летать, а в "Всего хорошего..." - ром(антик)-фай, потому что стало можно заниматься сексом на крыле самолета.

Have saw the serial and the movies and read the books individually and as omnibus and different sets, hardback, still in my library, says a lot. Date wrong, just saw it to review.

Yes, I read German, and spanish and french which took in school, though strangely enough do better with the german which only took through self lessons on computer, and no don't get nuance and things in this non english version but my mind did, remember all the stories just wanted to see how much could understand in another language.
