Embark on an outrageous journey through space and time with Douglas Adams' The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, where the fate of the universe hinges on the comedic misadventures of an unwitting human named Arthur Dent. After Earth is unceremoniously demolished to make way for an intergalactic highway, Arthur is whisked away by his alien friend Ford Prefect, a researcher for the titular guidebook. Together, they encounter bizarre beings, perilous situations, and the absurdity of existence itself, all while learning that the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything is—surprisingly—42.
