The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
by Douglas Adams
Forty-two. Arthur Dent is swept off Earth moments before it is demolished to make way for a hyperspace bypass, beginning the most absurdist and philosophically rich comedy in the sci-fi canon. Adams' satire of bureaucracy, technology, and the search for meaning has never been funnier or truer.
