The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

Douglas Adams

This hilarious sci-fi adventure follows Arthur Dent, a man saved from Earth's destruction by his friend Ford Prefect, a researcher for The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Using advice from the guide ("A towel is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have"), they traverse space with eccentric characters like Zaphod Beeblebrox and the depressed robot Marvin. Get ready for a galaxy full of laughs and absurdity.

In case you haven't read The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, make it the one book you read this year. And then move onto The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, which is where this quote is from.      source
