En esta quinta entrega de la celebradísima y destornillante Guía del autoestopista galáctico, el inventor de la ciencia ficción cósmica y cómica nos plantea algunos inquietantes enigmas: ¿fue Elvis Presley secuestrado por los alienígenas?, ¿cómo se consigue que un robot esté perpetuamente al borde del orgasmo?, ¿qué hace el terrícola Arthur Dent convertido en Hacedor de Bocadílids en un remoto planeta cuyos moradores rinden culto a Bob Todopoderoso?, ¿cómo ha podido Trillian tener una hija con el terrícola antes mentado sin el previo concurso de un ayuntamiento carnal?.. Adams, Douglas. Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency. 1987. Dirk Gently No. 1. Pocket, 2002. As a writer, Douglas Adams is like a juggler who keeps running chainsaws, cream pies, and baby bunnies in the air, always risking several disasters at once--and always pulling it off with aplomb. Consider: a ghost, a time machine, an immortal old professor, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, the British telephone system, a computer programmer, a magazine editor, a holistic detective agency, an ancient alien, an electric monk, his horse, and a sofa stuck on the stairs. Somehow it all comes together at the end. 5 stars. Hér segir frá því þegar Dirk Gently er fenginn til að rannsaka sérstætt sakarmál. Réttara sagt þá treður hann rannsókn sinni upp á fórnarlambið þar sem snillingurinn Dirk áttar sig á því að viðkomandi er að framkvæma eitthvað sem er honum mjög óeðlilegt. Og enginn nema Dirk áttar sig á því að töfrabragð ruglaðs prófessors, pizzur, dauðir kettir, heimsendir, skáldið Coleridge, draugur (réttara sagt 2 draugar) og margt fleira er tengt á útúrfurðulegan og flókinn máta sem enginn skilur nema náttúrulega Dirk sjálfur. Douglas Adams er sennilega þekktastur fyrir sögu sína The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy og skemmtilegan húmor sinn í þeirri sögu. Bókin Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency inniheldur sama léttruglaða grínið með ýmiskonar furðulegum tengingum og innskotum höfundar. Well. Once Dirk Gently showed up and the plot started plotting, I could see some of the Douglas Adams I'd loved in Hitchhiker's Guide. But I do wish it hadn't taken half the book to get to that point. ...And that the Douglas Adams I loved was rather more in evidence. Read this at least four times. It's by far Adams' best book, closely followed by Last Chance to See. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

The investigations of Dirk Gently, a private detective who is more interested in telekinesis, quantum mechanics and lunch than fiddling around with fingerprint powders, produce startling and unexpected results. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
