So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish Douglas Adams

So Long, and Thanks For All the Fish, the fourth book in the Hitchhiker"s "trilogy," is a much different read than the books preceding it. Gone are the skips and jumps from one galaxy and time to another, the almost constant evasions of certain death, the madcap hilarity that ensued whenever Zaphod, Ford, Trillian, Arthur, and Marvin got together (or split up), and the maddening pace of a well-told tale going happily along with little care whether or not the story ever approached an appropriately witty conclusion. This is basically the story of the young lady who figured out the secret of happiness just seconds before Earth was destroyed by a Vogon fleet preparing the way for a hyperspace bypass. It is also Arthur Dent"s story. Sure, we got to now Arthur fairly well in the first three books, but he does spend an inordinate amount of time saying things like: What?, I don"t understand, Is it possible to get a cup of tea? and That"s it then, we"re all going to die. Once you get him out of that well-traveled bathrobe, Arthur Dent turns out to be a real person - a little weird, of course, but real, rather complex, and surprisingly interesting nonetheless.
