It seemed accurate enough, the review that is, but I don't think you give it nearly enough credit. If it were meant to be a book, it would have been finished and gone together nicely, but it's not. It's a collection. And as we all well know, DNA was never very organized about anything. It feels as if the book was just printed off the Mac in the order they found them, bound, and put on the shelves. I think it gives us a true feel behind the great writer DNA was, and thus your review seems too negative.

i think the book is a great insite into Adam's life. You learn a good bit about him from his novels but Salmon just gives you that extra "thing" that mkes you feel more at home with his work and get to understand where its coming from. one of my favorite books, never gets old, and the saying under the title "hitchhiking the galaxy one last time". i dont know bout you but that affects me somehow so much its just well insane

"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a wholly remarkable book. It has been compiled and recompiled many times and under many different editorships. It contains contributions from countless numbers of travellers and researchers."
