I do not own the rights of any of this. Since the original audiobooks are unavailable to purchase online, this is the only alternative that exists. Arrr

Personal note:
I fell in love with these audiobooks after having watched the movie. The way the author reads is calming, passionate, and expressive. I listen to them before bed to ease myself into a nice sleep. Highly recommend!

This is one of the wittiest and funniest books in the English language!! And it is read so brilliantly by the legend himself, still alive, RIP. Many, many thanks for posting

I’m so pleased to have stumbled across this! You, fellow Adams-enjoyer, are doing the gods’ work. (Surely Thor’s at the very least.)
It’s amazing that The Algorithm promotes content like this to me, while its conglomo-brother algos are intent on rooting it out for removal, but i shan’t complain.
I think that _Teatime_ may actually be my favorite of Adams’ books, though it’s foolish to try and quantify such a thing. It was my introduction to Dirk Gently, and i devoured it in a day, ADHD be damned. Dirk’s standoff with his cleaner is reason enough to praise the book.
Finding the audiobook now—in the author’s own mellifluous voice!—allows me to experience its delights again, even though my brain no longer allows me books without a fight.
Thanks!

I don't know how the Almighty Algorithm decided this was exactly what I needed today but I deeply appreciate it.

1:21:20 "I'll tell you what I want..." why does my brain have to add, " what I really really want"? 😅😂
