Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy

«Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy», starting as a radio show on the BBC, had a grand success. The eponymous novel topped the list of English bestsellers in 1984, and Adams became the youngest author to receive the «Golden Pen» award,... given for 1 million copies sold.
The 1982 television adaptation solidified the success of the «Hitchhiker» book series, while the 2005 feature film, with a budget of $50 million, recouped its production costs twice and was nominated for 7 awards.
The popularity of the satirical «trilogy in five parts» spilled into the music and computer industries. For instance, the bands Radiohead, Coldplay, and NOFX use quotes from Adams' novel, while Level 42 is named after the main storyline of the book.
The heroes of the equally cult film «Men in Black» unashamedly use the sarcastic dialogues of Adams' characters.
