There is a long tradition of Great Detectives and Dirk Gently does not belong to it. But his search for a missing cat uncovers a ghost, a time-traveller, AND the devastating secret of humankind! (back cover)

Douglas Adams does time travel and ghosts with style!

It was a very good book, part of my renewed commitment to reading (the first of that commitment). The book winds around in a lot of different story lines finally (sort of) putting everything together in the end. It is very similar to Douglas Adams usual writing style.

I particularly enjoy the old school mention of Macintosh computers and synthesizers, the technology seems very accurate to the time the book was written (except for the time machine of course).

Review of "L'investigatore olistico Dirk Gently" on 'Goodreads'

È Douglas Adams, c'è poco da aggiungere. L'investigatore Dirk Gently è uno dei personaggi del suo mondo e non rimarrete certamente delusi, anche se questa non è la Guida.
