À propos de cette écoute

Read by Stephen Fry.

The intergalactic adventures of Arthur Dent begin in the first volume of the 'trilogy of five', Douglas Adams' comedy sci-fi classic The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

'One of the greatest achievements in comedy. A work of staggering genius' - David Walliams

'By turns authoritative as the narrator, bemused as Arthur Dent, deadpan as Ford Prefect and manic as Zaphod Beeblebrox, he [Stephen Fry] makes an altogether appropriate reader' - The Times

'Master of comedy Stephen Fry delivers a brilliant audiobook narration' - Editor Review

On 12 October 1979 the most remarkable book ever to come out of the great publishing corporations of Ursa Minor (and Earth) was made available to humanity – The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy.

It's an ordinary Thursday lunchtime for Arthur Dent until his house gets demolished. The Earth follows shortly afterwards to make way for a new hyperspace bypass and his best friend has just announced that he's an alien. At this moment, they're hurtling through space with nothing but their towels and an innocuous-looking book inscribed with the big, friendly words: DON'T PANIC.

The weekend has only just begun . . .

Follow Arthur Dent's galactic (mis)adventures in the rest of the trilogy with five parts: The Restaurant at the End of the Universe, Life, the Universe and Everything, So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish, and Mostly Harmless.

    Avis de l'équipe

    Master of comedy Stephen Fry delivers a brilliant audiobook narration of the best-selling novel The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, written by Douglas Adams. Arthur Dent is a very British man having a very bad day. He discovers his friend is an alien and he’s taken off earth just as it’s destroyed to make way for a galaxy highway. To make matters worse, he hasn’t even had his morning cup of tea yet. This ingeniously constructed story takes a humorous look at how something as precious as Earth isn’t always appreciated until it’s gone. A lighthearted and enjoyable listen.

    I’ve enjoyed the performance as much as this classic SF book. Funny, intelligent piece, that make us travel in other galaxies to find out more about what drives us as beings.

    Excellent

    I used to have this book on audio cassette read by Stephen Moore which I can't find now. That was to me the definitive recording. Stephen Fry does a great job as always but with such great source material you expect no less. Enjoy, and remember......DON'T PANIC!

    Stephen Fry is an amazing reader and the book is just delightful. Adams writing is out of the box, verz creative and funny in a very light and amusing way. I would definitely recommend it to those looking to read something lighter but still very stimulating.

    Creativity of writing style and narration

    Stephen Fry's narration was truly outstanding—easily one of the best I've ever heard. It’s what kept me engaged with the book for so long.

    The book itself is hilarious, using sarcasm brilliantly to describe so many familiar situations to earthlings. The only minor issue for me was that the writing relied a bit too much on "telling" rather than "showing," which became frustrating as the story progressed. I felt the balance could have been better, but aside from that, it’s an excellent light read.
