Also, it may be that the book was written too close to his death to put things into perspective. Shame, because Adams was a fine writer and a great mind and I would hate for anyone to use this book to get a picture of him. I quite agree.

Read the authors themselves for they are talking to you, revealing their very souls, their thoughts and dreams (if they are really good authors which Douglas Adams quite vividly is), and don't take into concideration what other people (who very often never read the author) want to press into your mind.
