Hooray!!!
Here’s the article:
Douglas Adams’ last unfinished novel, A Salmon of a Doubt, will be published next year on the anniversary of his death, the British Telegraph newspaper reported. Salmon-the sixth installment of Adams’ Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy series-was edited based on files found on Adams’ computer after he died suddenly in May, Adams’ agent, Ed Victor, told the Telegraph.
Adams, who died of a heart attack at age 49, suffered from writer’s block and is believed to have been working on the book for 11 years, the newspaper reported. “We have pored over Douglas’ hard drive,” Victor said. “There were so many different versions of the novel. He would take it and then revise it repeatedly, so there were many files. As soon as he wrote anything, he would say, ‘Oh God, that’s terrible.’ He was a very, very self-critical author.”
A Salmon of a Doubt will be published in a volume of the author’s final writing, which includes magazine and newspaper articles, lectures, writings from his Web site and his work with BBC Radio 4. It will also include the screenplay of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, the newspaper reported.
