Douglas Adams is one the best-known and beloved comedic authors of the 20th century. Best known for The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, Adams's peculiar work has delighted—or at least confused—readers the world over for decades. But in 1987, he released the first in a series of novels of a different sort. A series about a detective whose methods were founded upon the belief in the interconnectedness of all things. A novel involving a ghost, time travel, an electric monk, a murder… and a missing cat.
This is Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency, and it might just be your next favorite book.
