Douglas Adams – Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency

So ein gutes Buch. Ich bin froh, dass ich es noch mal gelesen habe. Der Nebenplot mit dem Sofa ist so gut. Ein bisschen unfair, wie schlau und witzig Douglas Adams war.

“For there is no such word as ‘impossible’ in my dictionary. In fact,” he added, brandishing the abused book, “everything between ‘herring’ and ‘marmalade’ appears to be missing.

Und:

“But I also believe that some things are a great deal more interconnected than others.”

Und dann natürlich meine Überraschung, dass Douglas Adams bereits LLMs vorhergesehen hat:

“When I wanted to know whether or not it was safe to take off, I didn’t want to know that it might not be safe. I just wanted to be reassured that it was. So instead of checking it myself, you see, I sent out one of the Electric Monks.”

⭐ 4,5 stars

In the best way possible typical Douglas Adams humor and genius!
The idea how everything is interconnected was carried out very well, and the bits about Coleridge were just amazing!

How... weird. Liest sich gut, aber ist ausgesprochen wirr und ich befürchte ich muss es noch einmal lesen um es wirklich zu verstehen.
