Reviews
"An astonishing comic writer."--Neil Gaiman "In lieu of a conventional autobiography, this collection of letters, jottings and ephemera - interspersed with heartfelt tributes from admirers including Stephen Fry and Neil Gaiman - will have to serve as the definitive insight into this brilliant man's life and work." -- Alexander Larman 'All your readers have Douglas Adams Circuits in their heads, now: a glowing synaptic lens that has made the whole of space seem like a place as familiar and human as Earth. That makes us approach new tech, and the future, without fear.' -- Caitlin Moran "Douglas's slanted way of looking at reality makes the fuzzy sharp and the improbable probable. In a cock-eyed universe the level gaze is not much use." -- Stephen Fry, "An astonishing comic writer."-- Neil Gaiman "In lieu of a conventional autobiography, this collection of letters, jottings and ephemera - interspersed with heartfelt tributes from admirers including Stephen Fry and Neil Gaiman - will have to serve as the definitive insight into this brilliant man's life and work." -- Alexander Larman 'All your readers have Douglas Adams Circuits in their heads, now: a glowing synaptic lens that has made the whole of space seem like a place as familiar and human as Earth. That makes us approach new tech, and the future, without fear.' -- Caitlin Moran "Douglas's slanted way of looking at reality makes the fuzzy sharp and the improbable probable. In a cock-eyed universe the level gaze is not much use." -- Stephen Fry "[A]n enjoyable tour through the archives....The selections offer an intimate look inside Adams's process...and even tossed-off memos are sprinkled with the humor that endeared him to readers. Adams's fans will be eager to dig into this treasure trove." -- Publishers Weekly "[T]his collection of letters, jottings and ephemera - interspersed with heartfelt tributes from admirers including Stephen Fry and Neil Gaiman - will have to serve as the definitive insight into this brilliant man's life and work....[A]n invaluable reminder of what an inimitable - and prophetic - talent Adams was." -- The Guardian "The choice to present this material in its raw form gives the book a sense of intimacy and offers details a transcription alone could not....Adams was charming and funny in his written replies to fans, friends, and professionals, and his wit and warmth are evident throughout the book....[A]n enjoyable annotated scrapbook that illuminates the rich inner life and creations of Douglas Adams." -- Foreword, "An astonishing comic writer."-- Neil Gaiman "In lieu of a conventional autobiography, this collection of letters, jottings and ephemera - interspersed with heartfelt tributes from admirers including Stephen Fry and Neil Gaiman - will have to serve as the definitive insight into this brilliant man's life and work." -- Alexander Larman 'All your readers have Douglas Adams Circuits in their heads, now: a glowing synaptic lens that has made the whole of space seem like a place as familiar and human as Earth.

Reading a drafted apology to a girlfriend for being "bloody stupid", or a page of typescript in which the author talks to himself ("It may interest you to know that you are writing garbage..."), you get a strong sense of the man - the fully-rounded individual, with all his frustrations and quirks, not just the towering wit of repute." -- SFX Magazine "Although there can be no new Douglas Adams novels, crowdfunded publisher Unbound has given us the next best thing. It's a beautifully produced selection of Adams' work taken from 60 boxes of notebooks and memorabilia left behind at his death." -- Daily Express, "An astonishing comic writer."-- Neil Gaiman "In lieu of a conventional autobiography, this collection of letters, jottings and ephemera - interspersed with heartfelt tributes from admirers including Stephen Fry and Neil Gaiman - will have to serve as the definitive insight into this brilliant man's life and work." -- Alexander Larman 'All your readers have Douglas Adams Circuits in their heads, now: a glowing synaptic lens that has made the whole of space seem like a place as familiar and human as Earth.
