The Guide is also excellent in other forms like radio and tv and each one is slightly different.

I agree but the towel books are a good place to start. I also recommend the Dirk Gently series. But don’t stop with fiction. At least read the meaning of liff.

And Last Chance to See! It’s somehow almost as absurd as his fictional works.

Absolutely, and reading it today where cellphones and internet are omnipresent takes it to a whole other level.
