Day 13 - A Fictional Book

Again ... I haven't read many books but my favourite has got to be "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" written by Douglas Adams. I know ... I mentioned "Who moved my cheese ?" in an earlier post. That is because I wanted to something different to fill in for the "fictional" book post. Big deal !

"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" is a fictional guide written in the form of an encylopedia. The ideas mentioned in this novel are truly profound spiced with dark humour and satire ... both of which are my cuppa tea. (Have you ever read the comic strip : Cyanide and Happiness ? ... read it .. it is dark, random and racist ... mostly ... ).

You HAVE got to read this novel ... I'm not kidding here ... you don't know what you're missing !!

"Trillian: I have a plan.
Arthur: Does it involve pushing him out there and then running the other way? "

  1. I love cyanide and happiness, just my kind of comic strip.
