The Restaurant at the End of the Universe (The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, #2)
Martin Freeman is certainly one of the wonders of the world! I absolutely loved listening to this on my daily work commute, and I didn't even notice traffic! The story itself is deceptively light and ridiculous, but he just made it so much better! Not only did he have a distinguishable "voice" for each character, he also held true to that voice for the entire duration of the book! His vocal abilities are amazing...I also love the story, though. It touches on serious subjects, while making fun of how serious we always take ourselves when in the bigger picture, we are but a tiny molecule in a droplet of water in a never ending ocean. It definitely serves to help put things in perspective for me... although I don't have the ability right now to articulate how!
