The Stars Are Mooning Us

Although the title of this audacious essay may seem derogatory. I


assure you that I’ am not implying that stars actually contain a
pair of buttocks. I’m merely implying that stars( or suns if you
prefer) are so far away, you can’t really tell what’s going
there. It’s just a little humor, don’t panic.

This is a personal critique of mine, and commemoration for the


late great Douglas Adams Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy: The
Restaurant At The End of The Universe. In which by no means am I
inclined to be callous towards his work. Although I’ am
complacent to remain jealous of him. Which I would remark, “If
only I came up with that idea.” Unfortunately I was born a couple
of decades too late.( I apologize for not being entirely accurate
on how many years it’s been ). The Genius of this man tells it
all. And you won’t have to skip chapters to find it. Almost every
page of the book will keep you up for nights. That and a strong
cup of tea. All shapes, forms, and wonders of the galaxy can be
found in this exhilarating adventure across the universe. Along
with the characters you love to enjoy( Except Marvin). You won’t
find anything more unique then through his perspective. In fact,
Douglas Adams universe is so incomprehensible, it’s funny. For
the most part you can find some truth in it. Well, that’s if you
believe other life exists outside of our planet. Trust me I won’t
make fun you, your probably not alone. Besides that you’ll find
intriguing new characters, with personality’s so illogical you’ll
be glad you only read about them. Almost nothing comes close to
what you can imagine happening next. I mean why would you want
too, that would take out all the fun. Fun is the precise word
when it comes to this book. And you know what they say when your
having fun. And I have to be honest, This was the only book I
have ever read within one week. Which is an astonishing feat for
me. So now I’ve just degraded myself. Fantastic, there goes my
professional opinion. But there’s just no end to how much fun you
can have. Unless you count Milliway’s into the equation. Which is
pretty much the end of all things. How much deeper shall I go
with this tall tale of buffoonery. The only thing I can say now
is read the damn book. It’s just as if you never left the first
one. Unfortunately I have no idea how the first book left off,
because I never read it. But I love the movie. Besides that, I
can say this book is very promising. If not, just compare
everything through Marvin’s eyes. You’ll life will instantly
become much more exuberant. RIP – Douglas Adams
